How to get started with critical writing?

From the last meeting of Academic Writing, we learn about how to write with critical writing. The first, we talked about what is critical thinking? Critical Thinking means questioning what you read, hear, and its means evaluating whether true or not your sources of information are reliable.

Critical thinkers also need a several point, such as :

1.      Have an open mind

2.      Not think in extremes

3.      Not generate from single or personal examples or base evaluation on assumption

4.      Be interested in the subject

5.      Be active in finding information

6.      Not sit on the fence, from an opinion, or based on the evidence

Critical thinkers need to ask a lots of questions, use a variety of sources, and consider different perspectives and think of the different possibilities. If you are a critical thinking, critical reading, critical writing those aspect will lead you to be a critical writer. To write critically, we need to read and think critically and evaluate the argument of the authors. In short we can identify about :

1.      Who wrote it?

2.      When was it written?

3.      Why was it written?

4.      What is the purpose of the information?

5.      Where was the information located?

6.      What are the implications for my project?

When we want to be a critical reading, we should know a few questions to ask yourselves, such as :

1.      What are the main points I am being asked to accept? (Position)

2.      What reasons are being offered to encourage me to accept these points? (Reasons)

3.      Are these reasons convincing? (Line of Reasoning)

4.      What are the implications? (Conclusion)

There is also the different from Decriptive and Critical Writing

In writing, there are so many ways and strategies that we come across so that our writing has quality. Many experts share their writing experiences and they have different writing strategies for each person.

 How Studying Abroad can Change Your Life   What I really learn after I heard about Mr. Alex Experiences is we should have a higher education.
