Abstract


 
 
 
 The newly released Language Curriculum Standards for Compulsory Education by the Ministry of Education of mainland China emphasises the importance of developing critical thinking skills, and the value of related online curriculums is receiving increasing attention. Many studies have shown that essential thinking education develops students' creativity and self-diversity. However, it is necessary to note that this concept may need to be more idealised. A qualitative study was conducted using a case study approach to investigate further. The study involved semi- structured interviews and manual thematic coding with three teachers of online critical thinking curriculums. The results highlight that online essential curriculums of thinking have value, but the teacher, the students, the model of instruction, the teaching content, and the learning platform influence their effectiveness.
