摘要:Critical Thinking Skills (CTs) are among the 21st century learning skills,and schools are expected to equip the students with these skills.Turkey has been restructuring the educational system in order to improve the quality of education which enables students to acquire such learning skills as critical and creative thinking,problem solving,and collaboration.The present study based on the perspectives of young adolescent EFL learners presents findings on the students'awareness of CTs,and whether or not they apply them to a given task,and if there is any conflict between knowledge and application of CTs.The findings showed that the students,despite their quiet well awareness,did not effectively apply CTs.The problems they encountered were assumed to be resulted from lacking in metacognitive knowledge.
