CULTIVATING CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS THROUGH PROJECT-BASED LEARNING IN SECONDARY EDUCATION

Abstract

This review research paper explores the efficacy of cultivating critical thinking skills in secondary education through the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PBL). Recognizing the increasing importance of nurturing students' ability to think critically in an ever-evolving global landscape, this study examines the impact of PBL methodologies on enhancing students' critical thinking capacities. The paper synthesizes existing literature on PBL and critical thinking, drawing insights from various studies that investigate the correlation between project-based approaches and the development of analytical, evaluative, and problem-solving skills.
