(UG) Critical Thinking 1: Descriptive, analytical and evaluative writing Online
Both at university and in many professional contexts, effective writing is expected to demonstrate both a good range of reading and an ability to think critically. This workshop explains the differences between description, analysis and advanced critical evaluation of academic sources, and introduces you to strategies of using language to integrate different levels of critical thinking into your writing.
