Abstract

Even though some authors argue that critical
thinking (CT) is almost impossible to be taught to students
in non-Western countries since Western and non-Western
countries have different cultural background, several studies
on CT conducted in Asia, Africa and predominantly Muslim
countries have showed that it can be taught to non-Western
students. CT has actually been fashionable in non-Western
countries, and several non-Western countries have nowadays
included it in their educational agenda. In spite of CT’s
gaining popularity in non-Western countries, there is very
little information as regards what kind of CT which is
adopted in those non-Western countries’ education and
what CT framework which can work in their teachinglearning processes, especially in the field of ELT. This article
attempts to propose a critical thinking framework that can
be used in ELT as well as other school subjects. The
framework is the result of critically analyzing, examining and
synthesizing 20 critical thinking taxonomies, strategies,
programs and tests.
