Scholars, professors, educators commonly agree upon the relevance of fostering Critical Thinking in higher education contexts. The problem arises when we need to define what this concept entails. Furthermore, the notion has been developed in the Western world, specially framed in the North American society. Given these facts, a serious reflection is needed when promoting critical thinking in an Asian context because the culture and the mindset of the students have to been taken into account. Thailand is seen as a more collectivist society than that of United States (Hofstede and Hofstede, 2005), where the concept of critical thinking has be highly researched. This paper is situated in this trend of fomenting a holistic education, the goal of which is the promotion of reflective, well-rounded citizens who develop a strong agency when relating to their reality as well as its different cultural artifacts. The goal of this paper is to look for these collectivist understanding of Critical Thinking concepts through the observation of Spanish classes as a Foreign Language during 2 terms (January to July 2014), mainly focusing on three activities: an oral presentation about their education, a group work analyzing two different films and written assigments related to these movies.
