• an overview of the themes in my earlier work on the nature of critical thinking

• the "five pillars" of critical thinking

  • logic

  • argumentation

  • rhetoric

  • background knowledge

  • character (attitudes and values)

• holistic, interdisciplinary perspective

• critical thinking requires that these different attributes work together ("fly in formation")

• psychologically rich view (thinking, feeling and doing)

• variation among these attributes between people
