This theme of critical thinking has the potential to relate to a variety of educational issues (philosophical, political, social, and so on), research issues (epistemology, research design, topicality), and the dominant educational streams (Cognition & Learning, Policy & Leadership, and Socio-cultural Contexts of Education). It should help you think critically about your own work and the work of others.
