Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum Project Are you thinking yet? Resources in Critical Thinking: Major Change to these links: On 10/24/01, the Core resources file was broken up into smaller files instead of being contained in two huge files. With this change, individual topics can be printed out from the web and used as class handouts without having to download the entire file. In addition, links to the individual sections/topics can be established without giving students access to too much information at once. If you prefer to use the old files, your links will not need to be changed, as I retained the original file as is under the same name: corenotes.htm The following resources in Critical Thinking are divided between the core resources and discipline-specific resources. Within these divisions they are further divided between internal resources (that our contributors have developed) and external resources (located elswhere on the Internet).

INTRODUCTION TO CRITICAL THINKING Philosophy 11 SYLLABUS Links within this webpage Instructor Description Honor System Objectives ... WebCT Instructor Welcome to RCC’s online course in Critical Thinking. My name is Cynthia D. Gobatie (Cyn-D) and I am the instructor and coordinator of this course. I am a full-time philosophy instructor and I have been teaching at RCC since 1990. Description Critical thinking deals with the analysis of claims made in everyday life. During the course of a normal week, a person encounters literally thousands of claims; those made by employers and co-workers, educators, advertisers, the media, the government, family members, the church, etc. A course in critical thinking is designed to enable the student to decide whether or not a claim is actually being made and, if a claim is made, to assess the merits of the claim on the basis of available information. In many instances, arguments are given in support of claims. A course in critical thinking also presents techniques for analyzing arguments and recognizing common mistakes within arguments. This is a very important course to complete because you will be learning techniques and skills that can be applied in any other class that you take as well as in the workplace or social situations. When you strip down living to its essentials, the goal of every person is to make the best decision or choice possible under any given set of circumstances. The ability to make such decisions successfully is what smoothes our way through life. What happens if we make a poor decision? Bad things! Poor decisions lead to unfortunate, unhappy, and sometimes disastrous consequences! So our goal is to minimize the poor choices. I contend that a course in Critical Thinking will aid each and every person in making stronger, more successful choices which will then lead to more positive outcomes. What could be more important than that?

Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum Project Philosophy Resources in Critical Thinking Contributed by: Ray Porter and Michael Connelly Selecting resources in Philosophy which specifically deal with critical thinkingis a very difficult task, not because there isn't much, but rather because the very activity of doing philosophy involves critical thinking on a wide variety of subjects. In order to organize the resources in an intelligible way, we have decided to group them under the general topic areas covered in the typical Introductory Philosophy class. Resources under Logic can be found in the Core resources section of the Critical Thinking Home page.

Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum Project Welcome to the Critical Thinking Web Site. The resources on this site are managed and/or created by the faculty of Longview Community College for use in integrating Critical Thinking into all areas of the college curriculum. If you have linked your pages to our resources, or know someone who has please let us know! If you do link to us, please make sure you list us as: Critical Thinking across the Curriculum Project, Longview Community College. Our Purpose The intent of this site is to provide our fellow faculty members in every discipline with the most complete resources for integrating Critical Thinking into their classes. The resources are categorized by discipline with an additional category for the core resources which are applicable to all the disciplines. We appreciate that each discipline will have a different view of what Critical Thinking is and how it applies to that discipline and we encourage debate and contributions which reflect these views. As Educators and Philosophers we also maintain that there is a core group of skills and principles which are relevant to any academic discipline. We have tried to provide resources which will allow you to teach those skills and principles without compromising your individual discipline-specific views of how they should be applied. Check the Contents page to find these resources and those specific to your discipline. (If we are missing a discipline and you have developed resources of your own you would wish to share, be sure to send us a note or link using the
