• This paper investigates the need for the development of thinking skills in an EAP context, defines what the required thinking skills are, and explores the thinking skills and L2 pedagogy literature in search of paradigms relevant to the development of the target thinking skills in an L2 learning context. Along the way, the paper will identify the target thinking skills as critical thinking skills; it will also point out that the issue of developing cognitive procedures in an L2 learning context has been almost completely ignored within the fields of EAP and academic ESP.By situating the target thinking skills in the critical thinking domain, both the profundity of these target skills and the need for a careful and systematic approach to their development can be appreciated. The absence of relevant developmental paradigms within the EAP and academic ESP fields means that the explorations in the literature will range some way beyond these fields' boundaries.
