The article presents the results of a theoretical analysis of scientific and methodological literature in various fields regarding the definition of the concept of “critical thinking”. Special attention is given to American scholars, as they were the first to begin researching, studying, defining the concept, and establishing the Institute for Critical Thinking, as well as implementing such a subject in educational institutions. It is proven that there is no consensus among scientists regarding the development and formation of critical thinking skills, despite numerous ongoing studies. The essence of critical thinking for future music teachers in the choral conducting classroom is highlighted, particularly when working on choral scores, with an emphasis on the importance of developing this soft skill. The article justifies the feasibility of introducing methods for developing critical thinking into the educational process of preparing future teachers during choral conducting lessons, particularly in the process of working on scores. These methods include analysis, explanation, generalization, listening, comparison, modeling, hypothesis building, and illustration. One of the methods for developing critical thinking – score analysis – is detailed, as it plays an essential role in preparing students for choral conducting. The article concludes by emphasizing the significance of the proposed methods for developing critical thinking, as they help improve the ability to work effectively with information, confidently express one’s thoughts, interpret choral works, and enhance group collaboration, thus preparing students for their future professional activities.
У статті представлено результати дослідження теоретичного аналізу науково-методичної літератури в різних галузях щодо визначення поняття «критичне мислення», висвітлено сутність поняття. Детально описано один із методів розвитку критичного мислення – метод аналізу хорової партитури. Зроблено висновок про значущість запропонованих методів розвитку критичного мислення, оскільки вони допомагають удосконалювати вміння ефективно працювати з інформацією, впевнено висловлювати власні думки, інтерпретувати хорові твори, готуючи здобувачів вищої освіти до майбутньої професійної діяльності.
