Critical thinking, like a double-edged sword, has become a vital tool in this tumultuous information era. On the one hand, it equips individuals with the ability to sort out accurate and reliable information amidst a sea of ​​hoaxes and manipulation. On the other hand, it opens the gates to analytical, logical and structured thinking, enabling mature and responsible decision-making. More than just a cognitive process, critical thinking is an art that requires practice and persistence. This abstract aims to dive into the sea of ​​critical thinking, examine its important elements, and explore its benefits in various aspects of life. Critical thinking is like a moral compass in the information age. By honing this ability, individuals can navigate the sea of ​​information with confidence, avoid the traps of hoaxes and manipulation, and move towards a brighter future.

Radicalism remains a widespread global threat, especially in multicultural countries like Indonesia. Educational institutions play an essential role in countering radical ideologies by shaping students' characters to foster resilience against extremism. This paper explores how the synergy between architectural design, the authenticity of the place, and social adaptive learning through social networks and effective curriculum management contributes to creating an effective anti-radicalism learning environment. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this study examines existing literature on educational architecture, place-based learning, effective learning curriculum and integration of social networks in character education. The review highlights how architectural spaces that encourage collaboration and interaction can help foster inclusivity, open dialogue, and social cohesion—key elements in preventing radicalization. In addition, the concept of authenticity of place, which emphasizes the connection between students and their local cultural heritage, is identified as an important factor in building tolerance and social awareness alongside the implementation of an effective learning curriculum. Through place-based learning, students can develop a stronger sense of identity and belonging so that they are less easily influenced by extremist ideologies. Furthermore, integrating social networks into educational environments is examined for their role in promoting socially adaptive learning. Social platforms provide opportunities for students to engage with diverse perspectives, develop critical thinking, and build empathy—skills that are essential to counter radicalization. The SLR method allows for a comprehensive synthesis of research findings, offering new insights into how educational spaces can be designed to foster anti-radicalism character. This study contributes to the body of knowledge on the relationship between architecture, cultural context, effective curriculum implementation, and digital learning and offers recommendations for educational institutions to enhance their role in preventing radicalization.
