Critical Thinking Focus Applied on Student-Centered Approach

Abstract

The implementation of the student-centered approach in the classroom allowed the design of active didactic spaces for learning and the exercise of potential critical thinking, besides the technical and scientific objectives. This paper presents the pedagogical techniques applied to trigger the integration of the routine of thinking critically on the thematic issues of a course unit. The reasoning method used to exercise the potential critical thinking and observe the students' change of attitude is also presented.
