THERE ARE 4 PEER RESPONSES NEEDED.. THE FIRST 2 AND SECOND 2 SETS HAVE DIFFERENT INSTRUCTIONS..
Respond to Peers:
Review your classmates’ posts, and respond to at least two of your peers. When responding to your classmates, please provide feedback on their examples of good and poor critical thinking skills. Discuss additional ways one can think more critically. Each participation post should be a minimum of 75 words.
CANDICE’S POST:
Explain at least five elements of critical thinking that you found in the reading material.
1. Identification, which is described by Erstad (2018), figuring out what the issue is and what is contributing to the issue.
2. Information Seeking, finding facts that are able to back up the information with statistics reliable sources. This helps to solidify the data provided is legitimate and can be proven (Critical thinking skill. n.d.).
3. Identifying biases. Seeing the information from both sides. No matter what I believe, I need to provide the other side of this information, so I am not forcing my opinion on the matter, onto others.
4. Predicting. Being able to provide solutions and preparing for the possible outcomes. Planning based on the outcomes I believe might happen.
5. Curiosity. Having curiosity can help you dig deeper into the issue. “All it takes is a conscious effort to ask open-ended questions about the things you see in your everyday life, and you can then invest the time to follow up on these questions” (Erstad. 2018. Para. 23).
Search the Internet, media, or the Ashford University Library, and find an example in which good critical thinking skills are being demonstrated by the author or speaker. Summarize the content and explain why you think it demonstrates good critical thinking skills.
Religion, conflict, and resolution (ABA. n.d.), is the article I chose to represent good critical thinking skills. It identifies the issue of a person’s perspective of religion and the discussion of such causes conflict because not everyone views religion the same. It seeks information from sources who are considered knowledgeable in the field of conflict resolution. This article addresses the issue from both sides, digs deeper and finds their issues with religion most likely are personal views. They also suggest learning more about other religions, although you still may feel the same, you can become more versed in their religion so you can understand their point of view.
Search the Internet, media, or the Ashford University Library, and find an example in which the author or speaker lacks good critical thinking skills. Summarize the content and explain why you think it demonstrates the absence of good, critical thinking skills

Financial Problem
1. Define the financial problem
It is imperative to understand the financial problem fully before jumping into a solution. Some financial problems like thinking about what to eat for breakfast, whether to take a train or drive to work and what to wear to work appear to be so simple. Moreover, the solutions to such kind of financial problems appear to have less impact on our life. If a person is facing a financial problem, he or she can apply the kipling method to define the financial problems. According to the kipling method of defining the financial problem, the problem statement of the problem should be clear. The problem state can be clear only if the six components of the kipling method. The six components include: “What is the problem?”, “Why is fixing the problem critical?”, “When did the problem arise?”, “How did the problem happen?” “Where is the problem occurring?”, “Who will the problem affect?”.
2. Develop an alternative solution to the financial problem
One of the common barriers to solving a financial problem is the relying on the previous experiences that appear to be similar to our current financial state. Perhaps, we are the creators of our poor financial habits and sometimes our decisions and activities are true reflections of our history and stereotypes. Therefore, it is imperative to learn the techniques of developing multiple alternative solutions to our financial problems. During the stage of developing the multiple solutions, the main objective is to create many solutions without considering their practicality or effectiveness. Some of the useful techniques that can be used to develop the alternative solution from the multiple possible solutions that were created include analogies, means-ends analysis, brainstorming, and divide and conquer.
3. Selection of the optimum solution to the financial problem
By selecting the optimum solution to the financial problem, it implies that the solutions that appear to be ineffective will be obviously eliminated. Before elimination, it is appropriate to develop the method for evaluation. Many factors are considered during the evaluation process. Such factors include efficacy, practicality, timelessness, expense, manageability, and risk.
4. After selecting the optimum solution to the financial problem, it is appropriate to implement the solution.
Once the best solution to the financial problem has been selected, it is high time to start taking action. For example, if a person decided to live on cash for a given period then it is high time to implement that approach. Apart from implementing the solution, it is prudent to recognize that some obstacles or problems might arise from the solution. Therefore, it will be ...

Many people get all or most of their news from social media. For this project, we are going to be analyzing the content of several social media sites from major news sources, paying particular attention to social media standards, practices, and regulation.
Where do you get your news? Start by going to one major news site's FACEBOOK page (CNN, MSNBC, FOX, etc.) Try another different news site's TWITTER feed, and third choose another social media site such as Reddit, Pinterest, or another (preferably one you use, if there is one).
Analyze the sites in a 3 page total paper. In your analysis, be sure to include the following:
General introduction to your thoughts on the social media you studied
Several social media practices you observed (e.g., what gets the most interaction?)
Examples of regulation of social media and discussion of such regulation (Is it good, bad, or indifferent? How could circumstances change the situation?)
Analysis of ethical concerns (e.g., can you see examples of bias?)
What is the culture of each site – how do users seem to respond to questionable items? (Is racism or open mocking ignored or pursued?)
Conclusion of your findings

Ethics
Assessment 1 (Normative Theories)
While working in the business office of a primary care medical facility, you come across records showing that one of your daughter's grade-school teachers has been prescribed antipsychotic medication for the control of schizophrenia. Although you have been told to respect patient confidentiality in the workplace, you fear the potential harm such a person could cause in a position of authority over children. Develop your position on this ethical issue. What would you do?
Write a paper addressing this topic, supporting your position with credible research.
In explaining your position, address each of the following questions:
· What features of the situation are relevant for making a moral decision?
· What would a deontologist like Immanuel Kant recommend?
· What would a consequentialist like John Stuart Mill recommend?
· How do you justify your own decision about what to do?Additional Requirements
· Written communication:Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
· APA formatting: Include a title page and a references page, formatted according to APA (6thedition) style and formatting.
· References:A typical paper will include support from a minimum of 3–5 references. You should also include support from your independent research of scholarly or professional materials.
· Length: A typical paper will be 4 typed, double-spaced pages in length.
· Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12-point.
Assignment 2 (Making a Moral Decision)
For this assessment, you will invent a practical circumstance of your own choosing that illuminates differences among the three approaches to normative theory; a circumstance in which the duties, consequences, and virtues do not align with each other. It does not need to be a grand, controversial social issue; an everyday moral dilemma will make the conflict clearer. Just look for an example where doing your duty might cause lasting harm, or where caring about people requires breaking the rules.
Write a paper addressing this topic, supporting your statements with credible research on the three approaches to normative theory. You are also expected to conduct your own independent research into the scholarly and professional resources of the field.
Begin by describing a concrete situation that calls for someone to make an ethical decision about what to do. Choosing your example carefully will make it easier to draw an interesting contrast between the theoretical applications. Be sure to describe the situation with enough detail to provide adequate information for arriving at a responsible choice. You are welcome to choose a case in which you are personally involved, but you may find it easier to think objectively with a little detachment.

You might begin by making a list of all the products that fall into this category (if you are creative, this could be a fairly long list). Then think about which of these products seem to be aimed primarily at men, which at men, and which at both sexes. Look at the advertisements for these products in magazines, television ads, or on the internet. What gender messages are begin sent in these advertisements? What does your investigation suggest about men’s and women’s feelings about their bodies? (as an alternative, you can do research on how we manipulate our body to meet the gender binary goal e.g. cosmetic surgery)
Topic: Culture and Menstruation Taboos: Many cultures have menstruation taboos, dictating behaviors women can and cannot engage in when they are menstruating. Use online resources and your library to do some research on how different cultures think about menstruation and the norms they have regarding this biological process. How do these practices compare with those in your own culture?
Topic: Division of Labor in your Household: Write an essay in which you describe what the division of household labor was like in your own house growing up. Who did what, and how did everyone seem to feel about it? Were there tensions over who did what tasks? What would be your ideal division of household labor if you were to form your own household?
Topic: Couples and Household Labor: Interview some couple about their division of household labor. You might interview both together or each separately. Come up with an extensive list of all the tasks that are involved in maintaining a household, and ask your ...

Discussion: Ethics and Mass Communication
The choices made by media organizations about what stories to cover, what images to show, who to interview, what sound bytes to air, and how to present information can change the way you perceive ethical issues. Media messages may stir conflicts with your own values or challenge you to think differently about information. In this Discussion, you will compare media messages about two ethical viewpoints.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Choose a discussion thread based on the topics available this week.
Choose two media events—one from a local source and one from an international source—covering your chosen topic. Examples of international sources include the BBC, British newspapers such as
The Guardian
, magazines such as
The Economist
, or newspapers with an international focus, such as
The Christian Science Monitor
.
Determine how cultural influences, personal morals, and ethics affect the way you perceive the events.
Examine whether your morals and ethics are, in turn, influenced by the media.
Consider how the two forms of media your examined could change your ethical perspective about your chosen topic.
For this Discussion, choose one thread from the choices listed this week. Each thread is limited to a maximum number of students, based on class size. A thread will close if the limit is reached. If a thread is closed to new posters, select from the open threads. You will post both your initial post and your response post in the same thread.
By Day 3
Thread 1: Economic Equality
Post
a 2- to 3-paragraph comparison of the how the two media events portrayed issues related to economic equality.

Social justice
is the view that all people deserve equal economic, political and social rights and opportunities. Social justice isn’t an “us versus them” mindset; instead, it is a “we are – or should be- in this together” attitude. To understand the intricacies of social justice and create social change, your final essay prompt asks you to:
- Work closely with any two personal narratives from Michelle Tea’s
Without a Net
. From these, you will determine a common, social justice issue. These will be your primary sources.
- Include three or more secondary sources to support your thinking. See below for acceptable means of research.
- Form a thesis based on the information you gather from all of your sources. As we have discussed this semester, your thesis (at first) will be a working one as you investigate a social justice issue. The deeper your analysis, the better.
For example, one common thread between primary sources might be the stigmatization of teenage mothers. Looking at this theme within a larger social context, one might argue that because of the stigmatization of teenage mothers, women haven’t been given the necessary medical treatment they deserve; therefore teen moms suffer future illnesses that may continue to be ignored. Had they been given the proper treatment primarily, many of these women’s health issues could have been avoided.
Secondary sources may include but are not limited to:
Ø Scholarly articles
Ø Interviews (those you conduct or view)
Ø Documentaries
Ø Newspaper articles
Ø Graphs
Ø Maps
Ø Charts
Ø Sound Recordings
Ø Art of any kind
In your essay, be sure to:
- cite and analyze passages from the text for support.
- underline your thesis.
- offer a title for your essay.
- include the MLA style of documentation. (Consult Bb for appropriate MLA style of citation and documentation).
- proofread carefully.
- submit your essay onto Turnitin.com (user info. is on Bb).
Below are social justice topics you might find of interest, but these are optional.
- Civil Rights and Racial Discrimination
- Gender Diversity
- LBGTQ+ Issues
- Income Inequality
- Poverty and Homelessness
- Immigration Stresses
- Health Care Availability
- Awareness Through Education
- Diversity and Inclusion
- Political and Social Injustice
- The Importance of Rebellion
- Injustice in Treatments of Disabled Folks in America
- Critical Analysis of Recent Movements (#metoo, BLM, and so on)
- Poverty
Pre-writing:
Use the rest of this sheet to brainstorm connective threads you can discern between any two personal narratives from Tea’s anthology.
