Artificial Intelligence and Critical Thinking in University Students: A Honduran Perspective

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Critical Thinking (CT) in education has become a transformative force shaping how students learn, analyze, and engage with information. A recent study titled “Artificial Intelligence and Critical Thinking in University Students”, published in the Journal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences, offers vital insights into how students in Honduras perceive and apply these concepts in academic settings.

🔍 Study Overview

Conducted across various public and private universities in Choluteca, Honduras, this research surveyed 236 students to assess:

  • Their familiarity with AI technologies
  • Their ability to engage in critical analysis
  • The intersection of these competencies in academic contexts

The study employed a structured questionnaire addressing both sociodemographic data and specific questions related to CT and AI.


🎓 Key Findings

  • CT Skills: Many students exhibit basic critical thinking traits like questioning media narratives and seeking evidence. However, few demonstrate deep analytical skills such as data validation or argument construction with scientific evidence.
  • AI Awareness: While most participants are aware of basic AI applications like virtual assistants and recommendation systems, detailed knowledge (e.g., machine learning algorithms or data privacy concerns) remains limited.
  • Academic Use of AI: A significant number of students report using AI tools (e.g., chatbots, essay generators), indicating that AI is becoming embedded in academic work.

🧠 Educational Implications

The study concludes that although students are not entirely unfamiliar with AI, critical judgment needs to be systematically developed from secondary to tertiary education. As AI tools become more prevalent, institutions must:

  • Emphasize reflective learning strategies
  • Offer AI literacy programs
  • Train educators to integrate ethical AI use into curricula

Can Nosodes Help Cure Serious Diseases? A Look into Resonance Therapy

Image
  A recent article published in the   Journal of Biomedical Res earch & Environmental Sciences (JBRES) delves into an emerging area of alternative medicine: resonance therapy using high-potency nosodes . This technique explores the possibility of treating chronic and serious diseases—like cancer and multiple sclerosis—by increasing the vibrational intensity of nosodes to restore the body’s energetic balance. 🔗 👉 To learn more about this initiative and read the full study , The Use of Nosodeswith Increased Potency (Increasing the Potency of Nosodes) Leads to the Cure ofSerious Diseases What Are Nosodes—and Why Potency Matters Nosodes are energetic preparations derived from disease-specific markers. The study describes how increasing their potency levels —measured using special cassettes—can activate deeper biological responses during treatment. By applying tailored nosode frequencies through bioresonance devices, practitioners aim to harmonize the body’s internal...
