contents <p>This article examines contemporary pedagogical approaches that support the development of critical thinking in higher education. Through a narrative literature review and conceptual analysis, the study synthesizes findings from 2010–2025 across education, cognitive psychology, and STEM didactics. The article evaluates active learning strategies—including Problem-Based Learning, flipped instruction, case-based approaches, debates, and collaborative learning—through the lenses of Bloom’s Taxonomy and the ICAP engagement model. A conceptual framework is proposed to explain how interactive, inquiry-driven methods contribute to higher-order cognitive development. The discussion highlights pedagogical implications, the evolving role of instructors, and institutional conditions required for effectively fostering critical thinking.</p>
