Intellectual Standards

select an issue or problem that you wish to investigate critically. Formulate a question or thesis (Links to an external site.) on the issue so that your research has a clear and cogent direction.

Use Paul and Elder’s (2012) intellectual standards to find a topic or problem that is clear, relevant, significant, and precise.

Now, write a paper that addresses the problem or issue via scholarly sources.
Your paper should include the following:

Title page: include your name, date, title of essay, and class
Introduction: provide a two-paragraph introduction (Links to an external site.) that frames the issue or problem carefully
Engagement with issue or problem using scholarly sources and the intellectual standards proposed by Paul and Elder (2012): What is the issue? Why is it significant? Why is this issue relevant to you (and/or your community)? What have you learned about the depth and breadth of the issue or problem from scholarly sources? How do the scholarly sources aid you in fair-mindedness and logic?
Conclusion (Links to an external site.): Reflect on your issue or problem and how the sources informed your thinking. What have you learned? How can you apply the intellectual standards and elements of reason to this issue or problem to come to creative solutions? What critical questions remain?

Introduction

The underpinning foundation of critical thinking is developed through models and concepts of literature study. The evidence of these models has essential threads for explicit and implicit areas of access. Critical assets in agreement and disagreement involve fully understanding of critical section in the research study. A review of relevant research is done to reinforce the primary thinking based on real-life circumstances. The development of epistemology in group learning generates some essential issues that connect with critical thinking.
