    Study Notes

    Critical Thinking

    • Critical thinking is the systematic evaluation and analysis of information and ideas to form a judgment or decision
    • It involves identifying and challenging assumptions, and understanding the implications of a choice

    MECE Framework

    • Arranging assumptions/options in a Mutually Exclusive and Collectively Exhaustive (MECE) manner helps to ensure that all possibilities are considered
    • In a MECE framework, each option is mutually exclusive (does not overlap with other options) and collectively exhaustive (all possibilities are covered)

    Measuring Success in Critical Thinking

    • Success in critical thinking is measured by the ability to objectively evaluate information, identify biases, and make informed decisions
    • It involves avoiding emotional and impulsive choices, and instead, making decisions based on logical reasoning and evidence

    Illustration and Application

    • The main focus of the illustration and application is to demonstrate the practical application of critical thinking principles in real-world scenarios
