KRITIČKO MIŠLJENJE I SUSTAV OBRAZOVANJA<br />

Kritičko mišljenje razumije se kao jedna od najvažnijih karakteristika svakog<br />

slobodno mislećega pojedinca te bi trebalo predstavljati nužan preduvjet<br />

svakog istraživanja i, posljedično, svakog novog intelektualnog doprinosa.<br />

Razvoj kritičkoga mišljenja također se ističe i kao jedan od osnovnih zadataka<br />

suvremenih obrazovnih sustava na svim razinama. S druge strane, a to<br />

zapažanje predstavlja i polazište ovoga rada, svaki sustav koji ga zaziva mora<br />

biti spreman na znatne strukturalne promjene ako želi takvome tipu mišljenja<br />

dati produktivnu, a ne puko ukrasnu ulogu. Put kritičkoga mišljenja od odgojne<br />

mantre do punokrvnoga koncepta omeđen je spremnošću sustava na vlastitu<br />

rekonceptualizaciju. Osnovno pitanje koje se istražuje u radu stoga nije što<br />

kritičko mišljenje može ponuditi sustavu, nego što sustav može ponuditi kritičkome<br />

mišljenju.<br />

CRITICAL THINKING AND EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM<br />

Critical thinking is understood as one of the main characteristics ascribed<br />

to the freely thinking individual, therefore being assumed as a vital precondition<br />

of every research as well as of every new intellectual breakthrough. The<br />

development of critical thinking has often been highlighted as one of the basic<br />

tasks of the modern educational systems on all levels. On the other hand, each<br />

system that promotes it must be prepared for major structural changes if it<br />

advocates productive rather than decorative role of critical thinking. Such an<br />

objection represents the starting position of this paper. The capacity of critical<br />

thinking to develop from a merely educational mantra to a strong and sustainable<br />

concept is dependable on the capability and willingness of the system for<br />

its own re-conceptualization. Main question of the paper therefore is not what<br />

critical thinking can do for the system, but what the system can do for critical<br />

thinking.<br />
