This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Undergraduate college students select various academic programs for various reasons. Sometimes they will select specific academic programs that align with their career goals based on their perception of the rigor or ability to think critically in those programs. Whether different academic programs graduate students with differences in critical thinking is not well understood. The primary goal of this causal comparative study was to contribute to the available literature regarding whether differences in critical thinking do exist among undergraduate students in different academic programs. Critical thinking was evaluated using the California Critical Thinking Skills Test, a valid and reliable tool. It was administered anonymously to senior undergraduate students at a Midwestern university. No statistically significant differences were found between students in different colleges, selection or no selection of a pre-professional program, or major.

Almost all first-year college students discover that college courses are more academically challenging than they expected, and certainly harder than classes in high school.

Unique among college prep books, Thinking Critically in College builds on the latest research in learning, spells out the key critical thinking skills you need, shows you how to tackle actual college assignments, and provides exercises throughout to reinforce the lessons. Written in a personal, engaging style, Thinking Critically in College explains how to do the work your professors will require—exactly the preparation you need, no matter what your academic background. Practical, accessible, comprehensive, and interactive, Thinking Critically in College is the definitive guide, not only for those in college or headed there, but for everyone who needs a refresher on thinking clearly.
