Critical thinking is a rich concept that has been developing throughout the past 2500 years. The term "critical thinking" has its roots in the mid-late 20th century. We offer here overlapping definitions, together which form a substantive, transdisciplinary conception of critical thinking.

Contemporary Issues
Debate Forum
Students will be given 3 debate topics this semester. For each topic the students will watch a documentary they selected regarding the topic. It must be a scholarly video/documentary or you will not receive credit.
Students will then complete an assignment that requires they develop opinions for and against the topic of the video. Students will submit their debate in black board on the following due dates:
· Debate Topic One: Criminal Justice Reform:
After watching the video on you will write a three (3) paragraph essay as follows:
Paragraph 1: Summarize in one paragraph, the main topic of the video:
· What is the Issue?
· Why is this an issue? Who does it affect.
Paragraph 2: Write an argumentative paragraph Supporting the issue: you must list three reasons you are in support of the issue. These must be complete sentences.

Paragraph 3: Write an argumentative paragraph Opposing the issue: you must list three reasons you are opposing the issue. These must be complete sentences.
Example: I am opposed to death penalty because it violates civil rights of cruel and unusual punishment, etc.., then list two more reasons you are opposed to the death penalty.
Responses to Peer’s Posts – Please use the format below to respond to each question. You can write 3 to 4 sentences for each question.

*Item Five: Bandura (1997) identified teachers that have strong teacher efficacy. Explain what he meant by the term teacher efficacy. Include the definition provided in the text—“…the belief that what a teacher does makes a difference”.

Discussion One
Item One: Describe a moral dilemma; then describe how an individual might reason at each stage of Kohlberg's theory of moral development. You should create your own hypothetical moral dilemma and carry it through the three levels and six stages of Kohlberg's theory.
A moral dilemma is when someone has a conflict when they have to choose between two or more actions. The person has a moral reason for choosing each action they do. The persons’ reasoning is what is important, not their final choice.
A dilemma that I came up with is about a little girl who wants to be able to buy a snack at school instead of eating the snack that her parents send her. She knows that her friends keep their snack money in their binders. When working through Kohlberg’s stages she would consider the reasoning of each choice she made.
Preconventional Level: The rules are set down by others.
Stage 1: The little girl must decide the consequences of her choices. The little girl could ask her friends fo.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Pretotyping with uncertain students (focusing on testing proto...s)
1. Pretotyping for problem:
How might we ... encourage an uncertain student to re-assess her likes/
motivators/strengths to allow for career-planning/internship?
2. Two of my top 3 choices for
solutions
ii. the most disruptive idea (one that would make a huge impact, regardless of
how feasible or affordable it is)
Solution 42 - Go to a prison cell and learn from people on what you
should NOT do in life or learn from others mistakes (not in prison but
still repenting!)
iii. My favorite idea (one idea that I was excited about for whatever reason... )
Solution 30 - Plan early as possible with your favorite successful uncle or
aunt and get his her sponsorship as well for further studies / specialization
3. Soln 1

5. Feedback Interviews with students
Observations/findings
1st candidate liked solution 2 as it was more
practical and S.M.A.R.T.
Most people enjoyed the experience as long as
they retained control over their actions.
Nothing was forced.
2nd candidate felt that the anti-logic of
asking repenting souls really would set them
on the right path.
The first solution was more innovative and
required different type of thinking by both
users.
The walk through of the experience was done
via play acting and process visualization. The
Pretotyping exercise lead me to believe that
we can improve the timing on solution 1 and
thereby fine tune it for success, while 2nd OK.
