Notice that I quoted the words "critical thinking". There is a reason for this. Well, as I can understand this, "critical thinking" is not something new. Socrates and Aristoteles taught it. In fact, philosophy is based on this. It seems to be a recent (perhaps the last 12 years or so) bandwagon thing. And everybody gets on it!, especially colleges and educators. For me critical thinking is based on critical reading and writing. All three feed into a dynamic process of teaching-learning. Oh well, as for plagiarism, it is a way by which a piece of information is received and "copied" without any necessary comprehension and application. It just is! It is taken from somewhere and "pasted" somewhere else. The context disappears, the comprehension is null, the explanation is non-existant, and thus it limits the critical thinking aparatus. Well, that is one way of looking at it. :)

It was on the newspaper when he saw the watch again. How time flies! 50 years had passed since he saw it the last time. He never stopped finding it during the 50 years. He was too old to remember too many things.
