The core of the instructional design revolves around fostering critical thinking skills through various online engagement tools and resources. Students are expected to participate in asynchronous dialog via discussion boards, where they will distinguish inductive arguments as sound or unsound and evaluate their relative merits or deficiencies. Faculty communication will primarily occur through email for course information and concerns. Additional asynchronous elements include recorded audio and/or video lectures covering diverse philosophical topics such as metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, logic, social and political philosophy, theology, and axiology, all framed within their impact on critical thinking and the philosophy of science. Synchronous engagement is facilitated through video conferencing, allowing for live lectures and discussions on course content. The document explicitly details typical activities and assignments for each method of instruction, ensuring a structured and comprehensive learning experience that blends different online engagement formats.",{"@graph":69,"@context":123},[70,84,106],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/critical-thinking-asynchronous-dialog/178987/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/critical-thinking-asynchronous-dialog/178987.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Olivia Brown","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-31","2026-09-02",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":105},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",12,{"@type":107,"mainEntity":108},"FAQPage",[109,115,119],{"name":110,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":112},"What are the main methods of instruction for this critical thinking course?","Question",{"text":113,"@type":114},"The course utilizes a hybrid online modality, incorporating asynchronous dialog via discussion boards, faculty-to-student email communication, recorded lectures (audio/video), and synchronous video conferencing for lectures and discussions.","Answer",{"name":116,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":117},"What will students be expected to do in the asynchronous discussion boards?",{"text":118,"@type":114},"In the discussion boards, students will post topics by distinguishing inductive (probabilistic) arguments as either sound or unsound, and assess the relative merits or deficiencies of those arguments.",{"name":120,"@type":111,"acceptedAnswer":121},"What philosophical topics will be covered in the recorded lectures?",{"text":122,"@type":114},"Recorded lectures may cover metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, logic, social and political philosophy, theology, and axiology, framed by their impact on critical thinking and the philosophy of science.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":125,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":127,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":129,"site_id":62},178987,1790201986,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":132},{"doc_id":129,"user_id":133,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":134,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":135,"file_id":136,"file_url":137,"file_type":138,"file_size":139,"view_count":105,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":140,"language":141,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":142,"faqs":143,"seo_title":144,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":145,"read_time":146},16904993612988,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_a8503ba1806abce46bf441b54a3ca4cd","| Resource Type\u003Cbr>Textbook\u003Cbr>Description\u003Cbr>Parker and Moore (2020) .
