Abstract
The goal of choosing to base the work on critical thinking principles in a medical chemistry course was to develop analytical reasoning skills necessary for solving two of the most significant problems practitioners face - precise diagnostics and choice of treatment. At the beginning of the study process, though, it is problem of recognition and choice of solutions while just Eying and defending one's position. It is this goal which demanded using critical thinking principles to be used: argument analysis, conclusions, examination of hypotheses, evaluation and decision-making.
