Abstract

It is imperative that educational institutions equip young people with the tools to navigate the complexities of a globalized world and engage in transformative processes that will enable them to actively shape the future. Critical thinking is a pivotal element in transformative education, where decisions that promote sustainable action are implemented. The Critical Thinking School Model (CTSM) exemplifies these interconnections and elucidates strategies for integrating critical thinking into the educational curriculum.
