STRATEGIES FOR IMPROVING CRITICAL THINKING IN CHEMISTRY
Abstract
This article discusses practical actions based on improvisation techniques that affect the experience of critical thinking in secondary schools. The activities of science teachers to develop critical thinking in chemistry for secondary school students were also studied. The article reflects the main conceptual and methodological problems of identification, evaluation and research of critical thinking, as well as the importance of chemical knowledge for the study of creative and critical thinking of children. The positive aspects of the technology of critical thinking development are shown, as well as the features of this technology are given. Methods like insert, cluster and cinquain were especially noticed.
