Tonight’s #dptstudent chat with Dr. Kyle Ridgeway (@Dr_Ridge_DPT) was geared towards Critical Thinking, what it is and how to do it. Critical thinking is a massive subject that we only brushed the surface of. That being said there were several helpful links to articles and other sites posted that I wanted to collect all in one place. Here is that list.

Hope this is helpful
