Correct. Critical thinking is a process which includes the feature of analysis, evaluation, and creativity (Paul & Elder, 2012). In combination critical thinking may be defined as the “systematic monitoring of thought with the goal of improvement” (Paul & Elder, 2012, xxvi). We then can define critical thinking as an art that leads us to acquire new knowledge, strengthen our thinking and arguments, and improve our theories.
