Critical Approaches to Reading, Writing and Thinking

Author(s): Ric Baker, Vivian Beitman

Moreover, modern students get their information from a wide variety of sources (Internet, print, media), so now perhaps more than ever they need the ability to read and think critically so that they can evaluate quality and reliability.
