PHI 324 – Critical Thinking Questions As you read the assigned material in each module, you should apply the following critical thinking questions:

1. What is the purpose of the article [or chapter]? 2. What is the author trying to accomplish? What issues or problems are raised? 3. What data, what experiences, what evidence are given? 4. What concepts are used to organize this data, these experiences? 5. How is the author thinking about the world? 6. Is his/her thinking justified as far as we can see from our perspective? 7. And how does he/she justify it from his/her perspective? 8. How can we enter his/her perspective to appreciate what he/she has to say?
