Abstract

The Global Agenda for the World Economic Forum in 2016 included a topic on the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It is characterized by the integration of massive digital information through the interconnection of machines and processes in order to make decisions in real-time. The Fourth Industrial Revolution is having and will have a great impact on different aspects, such as business, governments, and people. The impact on education is our main concern in this work because global challenges are leading us to prepare our students for jobs that have yet to be invented. For this purpose, several competencies are required to be developed in our students. One of them is critical thinking (CT). The development of this competency has been present in the educational agenda of many countries. In this paper, we proposed that CT as a construct can be measured using brainwaves from a portable electroencephalograph (EEG) during a problem-based learning (PBL) exercise. In this work, a method was designed to acquire, process, and analyze EEG brain waves in order to identify CT occurrence. Some results are shown from these analyses, and a discussion is provided about significant differences within the critical thinking of undergraduate students taking a course in Integral Calculus.
