Dec. 9-10th, 2021, the international conference: "Critical Thinking in Higher Education and the Labour Market" will be held.
Critical thinking has a significant role in higher education and the labour market. It is a competence that is linked with personal and societal success, competitive and sustainable solutions. Critical thinking is recognised as one of the most important attributes of modern education and a mature, democratic society. It is manifested in a wide range of educational and study environments, in professional life, in unusual, unguided, everyday situations that require making the right choices, wise decisions and acting responsibly. Critical thinking becomes particularly important when it comes to crisis management and leadership in business organizations, as it helps to cope with the challenges of modern society.
But do higher education and labour market actors understand critical thinking in the same way? What is expected from critical thinking in contemporary society, in academia and in the professional world? Which methods of developing critical thinking are really effective? How can researchers as well as students, teachers, administrators, politicians, managers, communication specialists, employers contribute to the actualisation of critical thinking?
This conference is an invitation to a wide-ranging discussion about critical thinking, its significance, sharing the best practices of critical thinking development in higher education and professional life, conceptualisation and research on critical thinking.
