  • Developing critical thinking skills is an
    important journey. This week, you were introduced
    to the topic of critical thinking and had the
    opportunity to complete a self-evaluation related
    to your critical thinking skills. You also
    learned about the barriers that one can encounter
    in critical thinking and the characteristics of a
    good critical thinker. This assignment will help
    you to put it all together and apply what you
    have learned to your own life.

  • This week's readings and activities focused on
    how reason, emotion, and communication may
    influence critical thinking. In this assignment,
    you will identify the concepts of reason,
    emotion, and communication in your everyday
    critical thinking practices and compile them in a
    Microsoft PowerPoint presentation template that
    is provided for you.

  •  
  • As a critical thinker, it is important to
    understand the elements of an argument and how
    certain types of statements can affect the
    validity of an argument. As you learned in the
    readings this week, arguments are used to
    convince us of an outcome. You read about how to
    identify an issue, the role that issues play in
    arguments, how to differentiate between an
    argument and rhetoric, and the different types of
    arguments you may encounter. In this assignment,
    you will choose an issue to evaluate, then
    respond to questions about the issue you selected.

    Thinking Reflection

  •  
  • Over the past five weeks you have learned about
    different elements related to critical thinking.
    You related the concepts to your personal
    experiences, and evaluated your critical thinking
    skills. You've identified fallacies, evaluated
    arguments, and learned the role of these concepts
    in your daily life. Now it's time to apply the
    concepts together. In this assignment, you will
    review a real-world scenario and apply the
    critical thinking skills you have developed.

  • Words can have different meanings in different
    contexts, and that is the case with the
    word critical. Using a shared definition makes
    discussion more productive, so to begin, this
    week we define what is meant by critical
    thinking. Sometimes, the word critical means being
    picky. It can also mean that something
    is important, as in that is a critical part of
    this machine. However, neither of those
    definitions reflects the meaning of critical as
    it is used in the phrase critical thinking.

  • As we mentioned earlier, becoming a skilled
    critical thinker takes practice. To improve the
    level of your critical thinking, it is important
    to know where you are now.

  •  
  •  
  • You make dozens of choices and decisions each
    day, often without being consciously
    aware of them. Because critical thinking may be
    more rigorous than "everyday" thinking, it
    is important to recognize some factors that can
    influence the effectiveness of critical
    thinking, including reason, communication, and
    emotion.

    of questions in a minimum of 175 words

    about factors that can affect how effective
    critical thinking is. This week,
    you learn about bias, fallacy, assumption, and
    ambiguous communication. These elements often
    come into play when someone tries to convince
    someone else to agree with them.

  • Every day we are a party to arguments. This is
    another instance where defining our words is
    important. When we talk about critical thinking,
    the "arguments" we refer to are not the conflicts
    or squabbles we have with others in our daily
    interactions.

  • Welcome to Week 5 and congratulations! The
    discussions this week have been practical,
    productive, and possibly life-changing! We
    started the course reflecting on how we formulate
    opinions and beliefs. We then expanded the
    concept of critical thinking to include
    consideration of how we relate to friends,
    family, and other personal situations. This
    week we look at a broader scope of relationships
    and
