After reading over, An Introduction to Critical Thinking, by Steven D. Schafersman, I was reminded of my own towns' education system and the exercises that we did in our curriculum and how often critical thinking was used.
All of the suggested ways of exercising Critical Thinking was utilized in one way or the other throughout my years in Milton Public Schools. I especially became very aware of it during my middle school years as there was more pressure on standardized testing, and while there was that to consider, the curriculum coincided at the same time, making it a very innate and assimilated process of learning.
As I exercise my many years of critical thinking, I exercise it now as I question the year to date this article was published- January 1991 ... can such information become outdated? Credible? Accurate? hmmm... good to know that I can still think critically!
