This study aims at Investigating whether or not reflective thinking skills are included in Reading Comprehension course and College Composition course, and shedding light on the extent of their inclusion in these two courses.
The researcher had prepared a list of indicators (in the form of a questionnaire) to reflective thinking skills which were five skills (Observation, Communication andparalogisms revealing, Providing convincing explanations, Conclusions and judgment, and Decision-making and proposing solutions).Using the modified questionnaire, the researcher started analyzing the content of the two courses, i.e., Reading Comprehension and College Composition.By applying Pearson correlation co-efficient and Brown-Spearman correlation co-efficient, it was found out that the correlation was (0.875) and (0.895) for the contents of Reading Comprehension and College Composition respectively.
Three weeks later, the researcher reanalyzed the courses content and compared its results with the results of the first analysis in order to assure the reliability.
By applying suitable statistical formulas, it was concluded that the percentages are (93.8%) and (87.8%) concerning RC and CC respectively.In order to present the results of the study, frequencies and percentages have been used.
