At the beginning of his lecture, he discussed the main points of critical thinking, after that he explained their practical experience by connecting each point with the research methodology.

Therefore, it is necessary to compile critical thinking with adequate facts and arguments. He also said that new discussions should emerge in research, merely writing a few pages is not research.
