Abstract
the Science Fields Abstract: That critical thinking guides a number of aspects of science such as rational, original and analytical is emphasized as an extensive concept in terms of that science pro- vides developing and producing an idea, in this study. Obtained by critical thinking, designs and facts in phenomena and human world bring arguments of these sciences in a consistent way to be used by presenting expectations and proposals with logic and reason. By reduc- ing these objects into human life, science tries to reach a universal, creative and consistent ambience. Critical thinking, both before and after science, has an active role because creative in- telligence, imagination and common sense have an impact on critical thinking in terms of providing the service of humanity by producting knowledge. Being able to distinguish right from wrong, recognize the error and express them is not easy. This will be possibleonly with rational, intellectual and disciplined thinking. Briefly, when critical thinking s content and scopeare understood properly, it is seen as a useful thinking activity.
