Prepare: In preparation for discussing the importance of critical thinking skills, please read the following articles: Critical Thinking and the Challenges of Internet (http://www.communicationtoday.sk/critical-thinking-and-the-challenges-of-internet/ ) and Common Misconceptions of Critical Thinking. You may also read other applicable sources found under the Week 4 Resources to gain a better understanding of what it takes to be a critical thinker.
Reflect: Reflect on the characteristics of a critical thinker. Critical thinking gets you involved in a dialogue with the ideas you read from others in this class. To be a critical thinker, you need to be able to summarize, analyze, hypothesize, and evaluate new information that you encounter.
Write: For this discussion, you will address the following prompts. Keep in mind that the article or video you’ve chosen should not be about critical thinking, but should be about someone making a statement, claim, or argument related to your Final Paper topic. One source should demonstrate good critical thinking skills and the other source should demonstrate the lack or absence of critical thinking skills. Personal examples should not be used.
This post should be at least 300 words in length, which should include a thorough response to each prompt.
