I would say that critical thinking is like problem solving. I have heard this term all throughout my life in every level of schooling especially at Jesuit. I think the you would use critical thinking when you are put into a situation that you do not know much about, and you have to use previous learned knowledge in an attempt to figure out this new and unfamiliar problem or situation. Jesuit did an excellent job of teaching us how to think critically, and I believe that I think critically. I would say that I think critically most often when I am doing schoolwork or taking a test, but I believe that I also use it when I am trying to set something up, fix something, or understand why something works. I do not think that it was hard to think critically about critical thinking, but I do think it was hard to put it into words.
