  • Neurophysiologist research suggests that human
    thinking has two distinct phases which are
    complementary in making decisions or solving
    problems. The first, or production phase, is
    associated with our creative thinking- seeing the
    familiar in a novel way, generating a variety of
    ideas, and a willingness to take imaginative
    risks the second, or judgment phase, kicks in
    our critical thinking, as the mind goes to work
    evaluating, distinguishing fact and evidence from
    sense impression, and running the tests of logic
    to apply what has been produced (Ruggiero, 2009,
    pp. 7-8). Chapter 1 The Brain Mind at Work

  • Debating moral questions is important as we seek
    to solve problems or face complex issues in life.
    Our text mentions four working principles, as we
    evaluate the obligations, ideals, consequences
    and circumstances in a situation (Ruggiero, 2009,
    pp. 41-42). Chapter 2 The Basis of Moral
    Judgment Select ONE of the cases included in
    our text on pages 46-47 Application 2.6 at end
    of CH 2, using the following criteria If your
    last name starts with AJ, you are assigned Case
    A. If your last name starts with KR, you are
    assigned Case B. If your last name starts with
    SZ, you are assigned Case C.

  • Some of the most innovative people were branded
    by their contemporaries as slow learners (Winston
    Churchill), clumsy (Martha Graham), stupid
    (Thomas Edison), or unimpressive (Albert
    Einstein). Yet these individuals persisted in
    developing their creative and critical thinking
    abilities, refusing to define themselves by other
    peoples assessments.

    topics
  •

    critical and/or creative thought could have been
    used for a better outcome. Describe why it is
    important to think critically and creatively in
    similar situations.

  • Looking over a list of the worlds inventions is
    in itself a good reminder that we each stand on
    the shoulders of those who have gone before us.
    It also brings to mind the fact that we take a
    lot for granted. Doing this exercise we may even
    come to think that all the worlds inventions are
    already here and in use. What an interesting
    creativity-blocker that could be! Then delving
    into the mind of any inventor exposes us to the
    very creative process itself, to the ways
    critical thinking shaped original ideas, and to
    the interesting steps that brought an innovative
    idea to market. Even the naming of an invention
    can in itself invite us into the creative
    process!

  • This Discussion Question will invite each of us
    to do a Controversial Issues Brainstorming
    session. Note that our text makes a key
    distinction between a problem and an issue, both
    of which call us to use our creative and critical
    thinking skills, to come up with innovative
    solutions or novel approaches. Inventors and
    scientists focus more on problems, while
    politicians, parents and leaders address human
    issues.

  • Each of us makes assumptions continually in a
    typical day, and many of them are hidden. Clearly
    this is an important potential obstacle of clear
    or critical thinking. Stephen Covey recognized
    this when he said, We simply assume that the way
    we see things is the way they really are or the
    way they should be. And our attitudes and
    behaviors grow out of these (ThinkExist.com).
    Marshall McLuhan called us to an ongoing review
    of our assumptions Most of our assumptions have
    outlived their usefulness (ThinkExist.com).

    problem-solving is also a major goal of this
