In The Futures of Learning 2 Cynthia Luna Scott states that educated workers in the twenty-first century need to be able to understand and work with complex ideas and be able to critically evaluate, interpret and synthesize information, compare evidence and make responsible decisions. By thinking critically, one would be able to think broadly, seek possibilities and alternatives, and solve problems using logic, resourcefulness and imagination. Critical thinking also draws on other skills such as communication and information literacy, and can be taught, practiced and mastered.
