Critical Thinking Definition http://www.aacu.org/value/rubrics/pdf/CriticalThinking.pdf
Critical thinking is a habit of mind characterized by the comprehensive exploration of issues, ideas, artifacts, and events before accepting or formulating an opinion or conclusion. At TUI students demonstrate and exercise critical thinking skills in written papers presented in response to Case and Session Long Project assignments. Signature assignments are best characterized by those that require an argumentative essay approach to include problem identification, establishing a position on one or more issue surrounding the problem, and utilizing background readings and other information sources to develop a well-reasoned argument to support their position on the issue.
