Objectives and competences

This microcredential introduces the three key dimensions of thinking: critical, creative and careful. Critical thinking enables the objective analysis of information, the detection of reasoning errors, and the making of well-founded decisions. Creative thinking is developed through cognitive flexibility and divergent thinking, thereby fostering innovation. Finally, careful thinking focuses on ethics, the consideration of different perspectives, and deep understanding before taking action, fostering a reflective and responsible attitude.
