Remember – these journal questions require more thinking than writing. Think about
exactly what you are asked to do, and then write as economically as possible.

• Critical Thinking
o Go back to your very first journal entry – review your definition of critical
thinking. After studying critical thinking for the past eight weeks, would
you change your definition in any way? If yes, how and why? If no – if it
was perfect – what parts of the text were best reflected in your
definition?
• Heart of the Matter
o Recall in your first journal entry that you discussed the authors’
statement that the concepts in Chapters 12, 13 and 14 were “the heart
of the matter.” After having studied those chapters, answer again, with
renewed understanding, the question posed there: Why do you think the
authors find these concepts important to critical thinking?
• Ethical Decision-Making
o The lecture claims that an argument is no good unless it has a “strong
and reasoned ethical base.” Do you agree that ethics is an essential
element of a good argument? If yes, why? If no, why not?
• Looking Forward
o Do you believe that you now know everything you need to know about
critical thinking – or is learning to think critically a life-long task? Explain
your answer.

See full FAQWe complete each paper from scratch, and in order to make you feel safe regarding its authenticity, we check our content for plagiarism before its delivery. To do that, we use our in-house software, which can find not only copy-pasted fragments, but even paraphrased pieces of text. Unlike popular plagiarism-detection systems, which are used by most universities (e.g. Turnitin.com), we do not report to any public databases—therefore, such checking is safe.
We provide a plagiarism-free guarantee that ensures your paper is always checked for its uniqueness. Please note that it is possible for a writing company to guarantee an absence of plagiarism against open Internet sources and a number of certain databases, but there is no technology (except for turnitin.com itself) that could guarantee no plagiarism against all sources that are indexed by turnitin. If you want to be 100% sure of your paper’s originality, we suggest you check it using the WriteCheck service from turnitin.com and send us the report.
Yes. You can have a free revision during 7 days after you’ve approved the paper. To apply for a free revision, please press the revision request button on your personal order page. You can also apply for another writer to make a revision of your paper, but in such a case, we can ask you for an additional 12 hours, as we might need some time to find another writer to work on your order.
After the 7-day period, free revisions become unavailable, and we will be able to propose only the paid option of a minor or major revision of your paper. These options are mentioned on your personal order page.
