Critical Thinking:

Last two sessions turned out to be far more fruitful than I had anticipated—it was one of those rare learning experiences that stays with you long after it ends. I was introduced to several new and thought-provoking concepts, such as the placebo effect and the Trolley Experiment, which immediately made me question how often our decisions are influenced by assumptions, emotions, and unseen psychological factors rather than pure logic.

What stood out most was the real-life application of critical thinking. Through discussions, examples, and active participation, it became clear how essential critical thinking is in our daily lives—whether we are reading articles, forming opinions, or engaging in conversations on complex issues. The debate around the Kashmir situation was particularly impactful. It challenged me to look beyond headlines, recognize biases, evaluate multiple perspectives, and understand how narratives are shaped.

This session was truly an eye-opener. It made me more aware of how easily we can accept information at face value and how important it is to pause, question, and reflect before forming judgments. I walked away with a deeper appreciation for thoughtful analysis and respectful debate. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the session and genuinely look forward to applying these insights in my everyday thinking and learning journey.
