1. In a college paper the audience is almost always the professor. Knowing this the author would keep his paper very formal by using proper grammar, and appropriate word choice.and would make sure to add literary devices that the professor looks for. For example, if the professor enjoys imagery, then the student would try to fill his/her paper with that literary device. In certain situations the student may have to read their writing in front of the class. When the audience involves the classroom, one should try to structure his/her paper in a way that would not generalize broad topics, because a classroom scene isn't whole there are many cultural backgrounds to take in consideration. A way to avoid generalization is to not give a single perspective on vast topics. For example, if one is talking about Trump, they should write about a liberal's perspective, as well as a conservative's perspective. …show more content…
It is important to consider the audience, because the writer does not want his/her paper to be biased to a certain point of view. The reason the writer would want to avoid being bias is because it makes the writing seem ignorant/narrow since it is only addressing one point of view. When one addresses different points of view, and makes it relatable to the entire audience, then the paper becomes more accepting to the audience since the writer is mentioning all sides of the argument. Even if the audience were to be the same, one should not generalize, and make bias statements. In the reading, it mentioned that if the audience is all women, do not believe that they will accept feminist views in the paper, because not all women are
Midterms had ended, everything comes back to normal. The past couple days not only my roommates and me had gone through a really busy study week. No matter what the result is, we had all tried our best to conquer them. Film as my major, requires my critical thinking skills while viewing the movies. However, in the last midterm it had made me reconsider my critical thinking skill for future.
In chapter 2 the book takes about how positive emotions can impact positive critical thinking, furthermore positive emotions can also impact relationships and your ability to make reasonable decisions. The chapter also followed up on how negative emotions can lead to negative critical thinking. I agree with this, I've had past experiences were I took a positive approach to the situation and they way I thought affected the situation enormously. In high school my history teacher also told us about how her father had cancer and had at least two years. When he was told that he didn’t take on a negative and sad approach like many people do when they find out something as crucial as having cancer. Unlike others he took on more of a positive approach
Chapter 4 was about Critical Thinking. First, it goes over the six stages of listening which are hearing, understanding, remembering, interpreting, evaluating, and responding. Then the book talks about how cultural differences affect listening. Then, the benefits of critical listening such as reduced stress, more learning, improved speaker-audience relationships, improved decision making, improved speaking, and a better society. The four types of listening are introduced which are listening for pleasure, to provide emotional support, to get information, and to make an evaluation. The chapter ends with ways to improve your listening behaviors.

Following the steps in this assignment will demonstrate how these commands can be used from the shell prompt of Linux to manage the boot process and restart options of a test Linux virtual machine (VM). This report will document the process of completing each step and include screenshots where applicable to demonstrate the results of each step.
These instructions will help you format all three parts of your paper: 1. the title or cover page 2. the paper 3. the reference page
The Critical Thinking assignment for Module One, Option Two, is a series of five questions pertaining to Set Theory and Venn diagrams. In short, Set Theory is the notion in which items (e.g., numbers, colors, people), referred to in mathematics as “elements” can be grouped into “sets” in order to organize and understand elements (Jech, 1971). In relation, Venn diagrams are circular illustrations utilized to visually express relationships between sets (Grünbaum, 1975). It is imperative to understand the relation between sets and Venn diagrams in order to fully comprehend Set Theory.
My name is Alexis Batiste, but most people call me “Lexi”. I am currently a Junior at Cal Poly Pomona. I reside in Long Beach California, but during the school year I have an apartment in Pomona. I am pursing a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology. After graduation, my plans are to attend Loma Linda University to earn a graduate degree. I would love to become a specialist in sports medicine as well, but for now my dream is to work with young athletes. I want to help them exercise and treat any injuries that they encounter while playing a sport. I want to help my patients live a healthy life by helping them stay fit.
1. My current situation with work isn't that great. I told my boss that I have school and that is my main focus this fall. They really want me to work so they can get things done. The problem is they are going to give me the crappy jobs that nobody wants. Why would I go back when I would be given the crappy jobs to do? I currently have enough money to cover my schooling costs. It bothers me that they can't hire someone else. It's almost like they expect me to come back and work.
Communication is the transfer of information from person-to-person, perception and understanding, as well as trust, respect, and empathy are essential to creating and fostering effective communication (Huber, 2014). I will discuss the critical thinking exercise in our text. I will describe communication problems occurring with the development of a critical pathway, and to whom the responsibility of these problems fall onto. Furthermore, I will discuss team behaviors, and leadership and management strategies to resolve conflict and improve communication and relationships.

In reading for this assignment, I noticed that one of the first points had to do with thinking critically. On pg 4 the author states “This means examining the assumptions that form the basis of our ideas and ways of behaving.” This point means that as products of our environment, we (those who make up society) must become more aware of all of the values, beliefs, and behaviors we have adopted or passed onto each other, and understand where it stems from. In the beginning, the text gives an example of the United States being based on a system of civil rights, and questioning the outcome of an alternative system: a society that instead values human rights. This is important because it shows how much our country emphasizes certain concepts over others.
One of the specific feature of critical thinking that I would like to talk about is keep an open mind. I seem to have a big problem with this one myself. I never keep an open mind when it comes to thinking because over the years I felt that my way or decision making would be the right one without the input of others. I have learned the hard way that listening to others turned out to be a good thing because their insight on things would make others make a better decision for themselves or even myself. Open-mindedness is characterized by being receptive to other views and having the willingness to change views with new facts and evidence. Open-mindedness increases intellectual capabilities by allowing for new experiences and perspectives. A narrow
