Pearson’s Red Critical Thinking PowerPoint Diagram

This free Critical Thinking PowerPoint Diagram is inspired by the Pearson’s RED Critical Thinking model.

The Pearson’s RED Critical Thinking model defines a path for understanding how critical thinking works and helps toward developing each of the essential skills. It is composed by the following components: Recognize assumptions (gather information, listening to what people say, etc.), Evaluate Arguments and finally Draw the conclusions.

People having the Recognize Assumptions skills have an ability to separate facts from opinion. Questioning assumptions helps to reveal information gaps and then examining the assumptions through the eyes of different people and different viewpoints.

People with Evaluate Arguments skills can analyze the information objectively and accurately.

Finally, people who posses the Draw Conclusions skills are able to bring diverse information together and arrive to conclusions from available evidence.

You can use this PowerPoint diagram to make presentations on Critical Thinking Skills or exercises for courses.
