The Role of Critical Thinking in Enhancing EFL MA Students’ Academic Writing Outcomes: A Survey Study
Critical thinking skills are necessary tools for promoting postgraduates’
academic writing. This study explores postgraduates’ responses towards
the role of critical thinking skills in academic writing courses. The study
adopts Peter Honey Critical Thinking questionnaire which is delivered
online to EFL MA students at the Department of English in the
University of Tripoli in order to collect data. 20 students participate in
the questionnaire which aims to find out whether EFL MA students
are aware of the role of critical thinking skills in enhancing the writing
of their written assignments and theses. The results reveal that EFL MA
students are aware of the important role that critical thinking skills play
in developing academic writing courses and in producing quality
content texts.
