Abstract

This article investigates the pedagogical conditions for implementing critical thinking development technologies in general education schools of Uzbekistan. Critical thinking is one of the priority directions of the modern education system and plays a crucial role in forming students' intellectual abilities and developing independent thinking skills. The research analyzes the pedagogical-psychological foundations of critical thinking development, problems encountered during implementation, and ways to solve them. The results show that successful implementation of critical thinking requires teachers' professional preparation, modern educational technologies, appropriate learning environment, and systematic approach.
