Hans Raj Mahila Maha
Vidyalaya hosted an online session on “Critical Thinking” under the initiative
of Institutional Innovation Council with the inspiration of Principal Prof. Dr.
(Mrs.) Ajay Sareen. The session began with the recital of Gayatri Mantra.
President IIC Dr. Anjana Bhatia gave a formal welcome to the Resource Person
Mr. Partap Rajput.
Mr. Partap Rajput started
the session by re-touching the design thinking process, which was followed by
the concept of Critical Thinking. He described Critical Thinking as a process
to develop the brain in such a way that people do not simply accept what comes
their way but rather question and come to a conclusion with evidence and facts.
He also insisted on theory by Albert Einstein that “We can never solve a
problem with same thinking pattern”. What, why and How of Critical thinking was
also discussed along with importance and uses of critical thinking. Students
also learnt different stages of Journey in Critical Thinking. The concept was
very well explained by an example of iPod by apple Company when a group of
engineers showed newly introduced very small sized iPod to Mr. Steve Bob. Mr.
Steve Bob threw the same in water and bubbles started coming out and he
explained that if we remove the air inside, we can reduce the size further.
The students attended the
session with great zeal and cleared their doubts. Principal Dr. Ajay Sareen congratulated
the Institution Innovation Cell for the success of session. Mrs. Navneeta
presented the vote of thanks and also moderated the session.
