Summary

Introduction

One of the essential skills that the learners must have in the 21st century is critical thinking (CT) skill [1]. CT has become a major focus and competency in learning at all levels of their education [2]. Global Citizenship Education (GCE) recommends that universities should seek to facilitate students to analyze issues critically, identify creative and innovative solutions. A function of higher education is to teach students to think. University accreditation boards in some advanced countries, for example, the National Association of Industrial Technology (NAIT), the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET), and the International Technology Education Association (ITEA) recognize competencies such as CT, problem solving, communication, and teamwork in their accreditation criteria [3]
