The discussions are intended to help you further explore and think critically about the information you are reading and viewing. Critical thinking is a mode of thinking about any subject, content, or problem in which the thinker improves the quality of his or her thinking by skillfully analyzing, assessing, and reconstructing it. Critical thinking is self-directed, self-disciplined, self-monitored, and self-corrective thinking. Now to think critically, here is what I expect: clarify assumptions and misconceptions, present different perspectives or viewpoints, and come to a consensus.

I shall pose questions to get the discussions going. However, you are responsible for participating and furthering the discussion through your comments and questions to one another. I expect you to be an active–two or three times a week minimum–participant in the discussions.

Do you have a positive impression of the organization based on this experience?
