What is "critical reading"?
Critical reading is the process of actively engaging with a text by analyzing, questioning, and evaluating its content, structure, and arguments. It goes beyond simply understanding the material; it includes assessing the effectiveness of the author’s arguments, identifying biases, and considering the implications of the text. Critical reading aims to develop a deeper comprehension of the text and to challenge or confirm its ideas and viewpoints.
