The development of conceptual thinking is associated not only with the ability to analyze concepts. Often, a person, after reading a few words, realizes that they did not fully understand, but overlooks the fact that for understanding, not only their assumption is necessary, but also an analysis of the logic of the presentation.
Even if a person is critical of their first impressions, they may neglect the search for these logical connections in the text, relying only on their guess. This is often because for many people, "understanding" means simply solving a problem, and they try to solve this "problem" intuitively rather than examining the sequential logic of the presentation. However, true understanding requires this additional step - a consistent analysis of the structure and logic of the presentation of the material. Only through the study of the logic, and not just concepts, is the true development of conceptual thinking possible. This approach to the development of conceptual thinking is applicable not only to academic texts, but also to more popular formats such as blogs and social media.
