Abstract
The critical thinking of primary students might be related to digital media. Based on this premise, the main
objectives of this study are to analyse the level of critical thinking shown by Primary School students (Murcia,
Spain), as well as to find out about the media elements they handle. A diagnostic investigation is proposed for
this purpose with two writing activities that integrate socially relevant problems. The analysis based on the
humanistic-interpretative paradigm of the 1272 productions yields results that show low critical levels in students
aged 9 to 12. This data contrasts with the large number of media components they refer to in their productions,
which generates relevant implications about the challenges education systems must take on in order to
respond to today’s needs.
