QUESTION 1: SHORT QUESTIONS
1 Describe briefly what critical reasoning is. [3 to 4 sentences]
Critical reasoning involves the ability to actively and skilfully conceptualise, analyse, and
question ideas and beliefs (Study Guide, 2022: 10). It can be defined as “active,
reflective and informed thinking that involves the ability to deliberately and skilfully
question, analyse, interpret and evaluate ideas and beliefs in the light of reasons, or
evidence, which support them” (Study Guide, 2022: 10). Critical reasoning is the
opposite of dogma, as it requires questioning ideas and beliefs rather than accepting
them without active thought or criticism (Study Guide, 2022: 10). It empowers
individuals to think for themselves and make well-reasoned decisions (Study Guide,
2022: 11).
