Thinking   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.

HUM 115 Week 2 Discussion Decision-Making http//

M-115-Week-2-Discussion-Decision-Making   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.

llacy-and-Assumption In the first weeks of
this course, you learned 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.    Recall a
time when you wanted to get someone to agree with
you. Did you support your beliefs with facts? Did
you perhaps leave out key details, bring in
unrelated ideas, or become overly emotional to
make your case?

HUM 115 Week 4 Discussion Arguments http//www.t

-Week-4-Discussion-Arguments   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. In our discussion of critical
thinking, arguments are the acts of persuading
others about the value of an action or point of
view. Whether we are trying to convince someone
else or they want us to agree with them, this
exchange, or argument, is a place where the use
of critical thinking is beneficial.

cal-Thinking-and-Social-Media   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 communication and the role
of critical thinking in those areas.
