Critical Thinking When It is Biased and Distorted

When we think clearly and rationally about everything, without being biased, uninformed, or prejudiced, then it is critical thinking. We all know that the mind itself is never quiet even distorted, sometimes. Once it is clear, it can engage in a more reflective and independent thinking. It can also reason to the highest level of quality.

People with this ability attempt to live this life rationally, empathically and reasonably. They can analyse, assess and improve any reasoning to identify any thought’s purpose, as well as question at issue, inferences, assumptions, implications, information, and point of view.
Most people with critical thinking are often to understand the logical connections between ideas. They can also solve problems systematically. In addition to that, detecting inconsistencies in possible reasoning of theirs is also one of their traits in developing their critical thinking. They also tend to find relevance before suggesting an idea. Most of the time, they appear to be quiet, while actually, their mind gets occupied with a lot of thinkings.

What makes a person a good critical thinker? The one with good memories or higher intelligence?

A good critical thinker is the one who knows how to make use of his information in order to solve problems, seeks relevant sources of information in order to inform himself and concludes consequences from what he knows.
In professional life, the one with critical thinking shouldn’t be more vocal or always up for any arguments. It shouldn’t be confused with being argumentative in the first place too. The quietest one with critical thinking knows when to speak. They won’t bother asking if not for giving more information to their thinking. Basically, they can enhance work processes.

Last, critical thinking is sometimes referred as out-of-the-box thinking, which is also a part of creativity.

My Star by Robert Browning  Poem Analysis Today, I'd like to present my poem analysis; My Star by Robert Browning . This poem analysis would be divided into three parts, namely: introduction which will tell a brief background life of the poet, then to the content where there will be summary and intrinsic elements of this poem, and then move to the conclusion as the finish line. But more importantly, you need to know why I choose this poem, which belongs to Men and Women (1885)  poems collections of Browning.

I analyzed this movie in order to complete the assignment given in Children literature class. But it turned out interesting! I focused only one theory; performativity from Judith Butler. Check out the analysis from my paper! The writer analyzes Frozen movie by focusing only one theory; performativity from Judith Butler. In order to not broaden it into some theories that may be found in the plot, the writer thinks the misconstrued-performances of the main characters, Anna and Elsa are easily seen and become vast majority start from the beginning until the very end of the movie. But it doesn’t mean other theories are forgotten. Something that the writer immediately thought about when finishing the movie was that Frozen is perhaps the queerest animated film ever produced by Disney–queer as being a theoretical practic...
