Project Based Learning and Critical Thinking: How to Strengthen Them through University

The main aim of the article "Critical Thinking as a Necessity for Social Science Students Capacity Development: How it can be Strengthened through Project-Based Learning at University" by Witarsa and Syahril Muhammad is to emphasize the importance of critical thinking for social science students and suggest ways to enhance their critical thinking skills through project-based learning at the university level. The authors argue that equipping students with such skills not only makes them better practitioners in their respective fields, but also contributes to their overall intellectual and personal development. They believe that implementing a project-based learning approach can facilitate a deep understanding of concepts, improve problem-solving abilities, and ultimately develop critical thinking skills in social science students.
