Module 11 Critical Thinking Analysis

Midterms had ended, everything comes back to normal. The past couple days not only my roommates and me had gone through a really busy study week. No matter what the result is, we had all tried our best to conquer them. Film as my major, requires my critical thinking skills while viewing the movies. However, in the last midterm it had made me reconsider my critical thinking skill for future.

While the media might not directly contribute to discrimination, the media is undoubtedly a significant aspect of modern day society that influences how people think about racial issues (Royce, 2009, p. 1, 17). Many people claim that racism no longer exists; however, the minorities’ struggle with injustice is ubiquitous. Whites are attempting to keep blacks and other minority families locked into an impoverished political and economic position by using various tactics to isolate them, such as mass incarceration that stems from the War on Drugs. The New Jim Crow helps us in seeing how history is repeating itself and how to legalized discrimination among the blacks and Hispanics by implementing the mass incarceration.

IT projects can have a lot of different components to them which creates the potential for more risks. These risks need to be identified, analyzed, and addressed as the project progresses (Schwalbe Ph.D., 2014). There are different types of risk that can affect the implementation of a system that will allow people to manage their own human resource information. A positive risks can produce a project under budget or ahead of schedule, while a negative risks can have adverse effects on a project such as going way over budget. There are also some risks that do not have a positive or negative impact on a project. Identifying risks and addressing them is mostly handled by the program manager.

This Critical Thinking Assignment focuses on using the Systemctl, runlevel, and init commands that were discussed in this week’s classroom materials. Following the steps in this assignment will demonstrate how these commands can be used from the shell prompt of Linux to manage the boot process and restart options of a test Linux virtual machine (VM). This report will document the process of completing each step and include screenshots where applicable to demonstrate the results of each step.

1: People throughout the world are able to respond differently because everyone has a unique perspective at what is visually seen. The art one person can notice may not be art to another. Sometimes are brain plays a grand role when one has a certain perception towards an image. Also based on human characteristics, some people are judgmental of certain pictures because of life events such as religion, culture, or even family.

Critical thinking is making well thought out logical decisions. You don’t have to accept everything just have an open mind about it. It is trying to understand something even when you are skeptical or don’t really believe it. You have to ask questions and try to come up with different conclusions than what you originally had or thought. Some of my questions that I have had from reading these past couple weeks would be; “What does it all mean?” “What is he trying to say?” and “How did he end up with that conclusion?” Using the Socratic Method, like Socrates did in his life, will ensure that we come up with different arguments to

Some of the feedback that I have heard from employees while conducting personal interviews as well as online postings on Glassdoor have revealed that many employees are dissatisfied with their supervisors. Employees have described many of their supervisors as possessing the traits of the Theory X mental model. Employees have reported to me in-person and on Glassdoor that they feel as though supervisors treat them as disposable resources at times. Employees have mentioned that their supervisors demand that all mail be delivered before employees can go home. It has been reported that some supervisors assume that employees will not want to deliver all or a majority of the mail in their Long Life Vehicles in a timely manner.

In our lives there are many different cognitive biases that can interfere with our ability to solve problems and/or make rational decisions. One that I think is especially problematic, and has been for quite some time, is representativeness heuristic. This is defined as the tendency to make judgments about a group membership based on physical appearances or the match between a person and one’s stereotype of a group rather than on base rate information. And essentially, a stereotype is the use of concepts to make generalizations about a group of people. (pgs. 252-253) Stereotyping in this country is, and always has been, a huge problem.

The Critical Thinking assignment for Module One, Option Two, is a series of five questions pertaining to Set Theory and Venn diagrams. In short, Set Theory is the notion in which items (e.g., numbers, colors, people), referred to in mathematics as “elements” can be grouped into “sets” in order to organize and understand elements (Jech, 1971). In relation, Venn diagrams are circular illustrations utilized to visually express relationships between sets (Grünbaum, 1975). It is imperative to understand the relation between sets and Venn diagrams in order to fully comprehend Set Theory.

The most impactful elective course that I took in my undergraduate program was PHIL211 Critical Thinking. My learning in this course revealed the many barriers that I had that were inhibiting my ability to discern truths from falsehoods. When I exposed the defects in my thinking, I was able to overcome the defective biases, prejudices, close-mindedness, intolerance and arrogance distorting my reasoning. Eliminating these to become a more rational and inquisitive thinker. This course encouraged students to think about thinking actively. When doing this I could question previously held ideas about myself and others and evaluate how these ideas could be holding me back in my experiences, relationships, and new opportunities.

Chapter 16 is about critical thinking and moral arguments. Critical thinking is a mode of thinking in which the thinker improves the quality of his or her thinking by skillfully analyzing, assessing, and reconstructing it. A moral argument is an argument with a conclusion that expresses a moral claim. Logic is rational thoughts and formats tool or ways of reasoning. Formal logic is the use of deductive reasoning and is a structured argument with a set of premises and one conclusion.
