Critical thinking is the core ability that talents in the 21st century should have, which directly affects the cultivation of innovation ability. With the increasing importance of critical thinking in the cultivation of talents, the study of college students' critical thinking ability has become an important topic in the study of educational psychology in China. In this paper, through the research on the development process, influencing factors and measuring tools of college students' critical thinking ability, we put forward cultivation strategies to achieve the purpose of synergistic development of college students' knowledge skills and critical thinking.
