Question

In your opinion, what is the difference between critical thinking and learning from a set curriculum?

Answer 1

when it comes to curriculum and syllabus, the teachers will taught us the concepts, relevant cases and real issues, the imaginary issues related to the concept, their own experiences. by this, we understand the concept in our own way, we pressume something to the concept and syllabus, we assess it, and we build our own thoughts. By developing our own thoughts, we starts to understand the problem, issue withour perception.

thinking and learning are the two different components and considered many aspects. when it comes to curriculum, it will be prepared by university people for the sake of students. based on the market conditions, nature of study, expected knowledge to the studnets, curriculum will be designed. students learn by listening to the classes, examples, discussion of cases etc from their classess and faculty. it is part of their studies, they learn and practice it to through the course.

but when it comes to critical thinking, it may not link or deal with curriculum. thinking is the natural phenomena of a person, where it comes from their past experiences, the situations they faced, the family conditions, economical and social background etc. the curriculum and syllabus may help to develop the critical thinking level among the people and students but it can not create these thinking levels among those.
