AB - This study aims at searching for and restructuring concepts and meanings of critical thinking from the perspective of Korean education. In reality, skeptical view about it comes to the fore although there are great educational interests and demands about critical thinking. From the viewpoint of literature education, I would like to pave the way to appreciate critical thinking and shift the viewpoint by trying to restructure critical thinking. For this, I drew the problems including those that were existing, which included awareness about critical thinking and was biased toward analytical characters, focused demonstration and analysis, and technical approach focused on strategy and formality, so value and contents were excluded. In order to overcome such problems, I investigated the possibility of literature as substance of critical thinking and tried to gain a new understanding about thinking and criticism through the invigoration of literature activities and critical thinking. Through this process, I restructured critical thinking as thinking to evaluate and solve problems through sound and productive doubts. Also, I thought of it as meaning-constructive acts of humans accompanied by interpretation and evaluation. Furthermore, as I put literature education at the center, I tried to also restructure characters and elements of critical thinking. From the point of view of literature education, it can be extended to the phase of contents, value evaluation, relational thinking, creative thinking and problem-solving. This discussion proves that literature can be a valid channel to investigate the educational essence of critical thinking. At the same time, it shows that critical thinking can be an effective route to externalize the educational value of literature.
