This paper describes design and evaluation of an educational practice aiming to promote university students’ critical thinking skills in lecture-style class for large number students. The design consists of explanation on the theoretical knowledge of problem domain in which the students should have experiential knowledge and documentary video watching with the viewpoint of the domain knowledge. Students then submit essay analyzing the video story. All the submitted essays are shared with other students and some of them are presented in the next lecture so that the students could mutually compare and review essays with their own. During this process, students are made aware of critical thinking consisting of “logical thinking following criteria”, “reflective thinking consciously examining reasoning process”, “goal-oriented thinking according to the context”. The design was applied to the class dealing with the business model concerning network externality. The evaluation indicated that the students were aware of the critical thinking process especially “reflective thinking consciously examining reasoning process”.
