留学论文必备critical thinking方法

留学生无论是写essay还是report，或是毕业论文中的Literature Review，老师们提到最多且最重要的要求就是critical thinking，就是大家常听说的批判性思维。今天就和大家分享一下如何培养critical thinking，以及有哪些技巧？

方法与技巧：
在写作的过程中我们可以问自己以下这些问题培养自己的Critical Thinking：
What are the strengths and weaknesses of these debates?
What evidence is lacking, inconclusive or limited?
What can you add to the topic? What will you do differently?

在具体写作过程当中要注意：
不能做什么
Evaluate & analyze by showing argumentation
Identifying the strengths
Support statements with evidence
Well-developed thesis

需要做什么
Only Describe/summarize
Only Pinpoint the weakness
Only present statements
Lack of thesis statement (main idea)

可以在写作的过程当中释放出一些critical的信号和标示：
critical voice: signposting 指示词
Where appropriate，begin sections and paragraphs with a statement which synthesises or analyses，rather than just describes
以上方法和技巧大家可以进行练习和使用，希望对宝子们今后写essay、report和毕业论文有帮助。
