Barriers of Critical Thinking in Medical Students' Curriculum from the Viewpoint of Medical Education Experts: A Qualitative Study.

Abstract

Given the results and the main emphasis of curriculum planners on incorporating high-level critical thinking and revision skills into the curriculum, the country's academic education system requires a change in the thinking style, research, deepening critical thinking, and a change in teachers' attitudes toward curriculum designing (goals, content, teaching and evaluation methods); also, it is suggested that the authorities should pay attention to the need to develop and utilize critical thinking skills in the learners' education.
