Abstract
In a democracy, the most exacting and challenging
job of a citizen is citizenship. This is so because a
citizen is responsible for selecting the government
and to use this right, the individual must be capable
of decision-making. Education plays a pivotal role
to develop this competence by helping us develop
our ability to think clearly and grasp new ideas.
An ideal and rational public discourse requires the
interest of all citizens, the availability of relevant
information to all and well-developed critical
thinking abilities among them. Education aims at
developing these critical thinking abilities in the
citizens, where each citizen can make his or her own
decisions rationally and can understand intellectual
integrity and sift truth from falsehood, facts from
propaganda; reject partiality and radicalism. An
educated mind has a scientific temperament and
faith in outcomes based on data. It has the ability
to receive and perceive new ideas.
