critical thinking in human service
Critical thinking is a skill that is essential to have in the human services field. Critical thinking allows us as human services practitioners to better identify and understand the problems of the individuals we are serving. Western Washington Universityâs Human Services program provides an opportunity for its students to develop and use critical thinking skills. These skills are developed in and outside the classroom. One class in particular that helped enhance my critical thinking skills was HSP 406 - Human Services Professionals and Global Systems (Blanchard 2014). During this class students explored various global and societal relationships.
