HUM 115 Week 1 Discussion Critical Thinking   FOR
MORE CLASSES VISIT www.hum115rank.com 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

CLASSES VISIT www.hum115rank.com 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
