| At present,critical thinking is one of the essential core qualities for college students in the 21 st century.In the field of educational technology research,it is more necessary to develop students’ critical thinking and guide students to use digital tools reasonably to solve specific problems.Therefore,as one of the development goals of educational technology subject thinking,critical thinking must highlight the intrinsic value of educational technology.Training students’ critical thinking,however,is not going to study in a day,and also without the cultivation of the scientific method.This study will investigate students’ critical thinking level by combining the principle of critical thinking training mechanism with educational technology discipline curriculum.and put forward the training strategies for the professional college students’ critical thinking.In this study,260 undergraduate students majoring in educational technology in S university were taken as research objects.Critical thinking level was measured by using the Chinese revised version of California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory and California Critical Thinking Skill Test developed by Delphi project in the United States.Through data analysis,it was found that:The critical thinking tendency of college students majoring in educational and technology is below the average level,and the critical thinking skill scale fails to reach the passing score as a whole.In grade categories,there are significant differences in critical thinking among students in different grades,The score of critical thinking tendency of junior year is higher than that of freshman,sophomore year and senior year.The score of critical thinking skill of sophomore year is the lowest.The score of critical thinking skill of sophomore year is higher than that of freshman,junior year and senior year.In terms of gender,there is no difference between boys and girls on the whole.In terms of the types of students from different places of origin,there is no significant difference in students’ critical thinking tendency.However,there is a significant difference in critical thinking skills.Students from cities have higherexplanatory skills,inferential skills and explanatory skills than those of students from rural areas.In terms of student identity category,there is no significant difference in critical thinking tendency,but there is a significant difference in critical thinking skills.The students’ inference skills.of class cadres are higher than those of non-class cadres There is no significant difference between critical thinking tendency and critical thinking skill in the key category of high school.To cultivate the students’ critical thinking in educational technology undergraduates,this study puts forward some preliminary suggestions,such as increasing the critical discussion,reasonably guiding the students to utilize the reflection skills in classroom teaching,inspiring students to use critical thinking to solve problems by creating situations and carrying out case teaching of education and argumentation,expecting to provide new ideas and approaches for educational technology professional students in the cultivation of critical thinking and research. |
