Thinking is essential for learning. Thinking is inextricably intertwined with learning. Teaching thinking refers to teaching critical and creative thinking skills and problem solving tasks. Critical thinking incorporates reasoning, logical judgment, metacognition, reflection, and mental process in course of learning.
