Through critical analysis, the purpose of this article is to reflect critically on some of the key aspects of Paulo Freire's critical pedagogy and its contribution to educational transformation. This study is based on critical interpretation and the concept of some key terms in particular. First, this article gives a glimpse into the background of critical thinking, the theoretical basis of Freire's critical pedagogy, and his life experience. Similarly, Freire's critical thinking on the banking education system, which hinders the development of learner's creative thinking, is discussed. These include the role of oppression and dehumanization of the traditional and banking system of education, dialogue and conscientization, libations and problem-posing education, praxis as the reflection in the situations, the role of political and cultural factors in educational change. Second, based on Freire's critical pedagogy, there is a critical interpretation of the current school system's educational process, Practicing Freedom based Teaching Strategies, curriculum planning, and possible transformation into teacher and learner roles. Therefore, to prepare a citizen inspired by freedom and humanization, it is necessary for learners to have critical pedagogical method that can move forward by establishing a connection between themselves and their environment. This requires collaborative and interactive based policies and teaching. It is hoped that such a study will provide some impetus for the transformation of the existing state of education, and will benefit the qualitative development of education.

статья посвящена анализу творческого наследия Э.В. Ильенкова, связанного с осмыслением проблемы критического мышления и роли школьного образования в его формировании. Размышления философа носят междисциплинарный характер, затрагивая философские, педагогические и психологические вопросы. Особое место в работах Э.В. Ильенкова отводится вопросам морали и нравственности, на основе которых формирование критического мышления у школьников реализуется уже на уровне начальных классов. Автор делает вывод о том, что обращение к работам философа способствует переосмыслению взглядов на современное образование, разрешению противоречий, связанных с этическими вопросами современности, а также дает возможность акцентировать внимание на роли учителя в образовательном процессе, направленном на воспитание критически мыслящей и духовно-нравственной личности. the article is devoted to the analysis of the creative heritage of E.V. Ilyenkov, associated with the comprehension of the problem of critical thinking and the role of school education in its formation. It is shown that the philosopher's thoughts are interdisciplinary in nature, affecting philosophical, pedagogical, and psychological issues. A special place in the works of E.V. Ilyenkova is devoted to questions of morality, based on which the formation of critical thinking in schoolchildren is realized already at the level of elementary grades. The author concludes that the appeal to the works of the philosopher contributes to the rethinking of views on modern education, the resolution of contradictions related to ethical issues of our time, and also makes it possible to focus on the role of the teacher in the educational process aimed at educating critically thinking and spiritually - moral personality.

The process of translation is treated as a sequence of three principal stages (pre-translation source text analysis, translation itself, self-assessment/editing). The chapter is aimed at proving that the first and the third stages of the translation process are based on critical thinking, while the second stage (translation itself) rests upon creative thinking. Therefore, teaching critical thinking must be a necessary part of translator professional training, because it is not only important as such, but also leads students to acquisition of mature creative thinking, which is crucial for translation problem-solving. In this chapter, the problem of training translation quality assessment is analyzed, the difference between critical and creative thinking is discussed, and psychological mechanisms of their functioning in translation are treated as a cognitive process; the role of critical thinking in raising translators' awarenesses and, consequently, translation quality is stressed.

Guiding students how to think critically and creatively is a crucial part of the educational process in order to meet the required skills to face the 21st century. In addition, attention to the local culture especially that is closely related to the scientific concepts needs to be strongly emphasized. Due to those two aspects i.e. creative and critical thinking as well as attention to local culture, the ethno-STEM project-based learning for high school students has been implemented and its impact to students’ critical and creative thinking skills has been investigated. This study involved 230 students from seven high schools in Central Java Indonesia. The data collection was carried out through a set of instruments to reveal the students’ critical and creative thinking skills. The instruments were declared as valid based on the experts’ judgment and showed an Alpha Cronbach score of 0.79 prior to use. The results showed that the ethno-STEM project-based learning was able to improve the average critical and creative thinking skills of students in all indicators varying from low to medium categories. The improvement of students' critical thinking skills was observed by the achievement of the N-gain score, i.e. 52 students (22.6%) achieved a high category, 102 students (44.4%) achieved a medium category, and 76 students (33.0%) achieved a low category. Moreover, an increase in the creative thinking skills was also observed, indicated by the N-gain score, i.e. 63 students (27.4%) were at a high category, 109 students (47.4%) were at a medium category, and 58 students (25.2%) were at a low category. In conclusion, the ethno-STEM project-based learning showed a significant effect on the improvement of students' critical and creative thinking skills.
