We live in times in which we're bombarded with information of all sorts vying for our attention and sometimes intended to move us to action. If we're not careful, we are acting on someone else's best interests--not necessarily your own. And if you are an engineer, or in a technical field, then critical thinking is all the more important to ensuring you're using the right information, data and insights to deliver the most effective and potentially novel, break-through solution you can. In this webinar, we explore the key aspects of critical thinking: analytical skills, data analysis, interpretation, judgment, questioning evidence, and healthy skepticism. This aptitude allows for much richer, better solutions to real-world challenges.
