I personally believe critical thinking is the way a person analyzes something that it comes in contact with. I use critical thinking when I hear new music, watch a movie or when I watch a sports team play in a game. I will admit that I am a kind person and I don't really like to judge things. I like to let things be. There should be variety in the world and everyone is different. While reading and thinking critically, I like to be honest about my enjoyment into a story. If the story is not enjoyable and interesting then I shut down completely. I like work that has excitement and can be played out in my mind. Those are the works that I love to read. These habits I do apply in my everyday life. I like to have fun and enjoy doing things that keep me entertained.
I do follow politics and I analyze them all the time. That is how I determine if I am willing to vote for something or someone. The media I do criticize but only in the sports world. I don't want to ramble on about what teams don't get covered enough but I will say that some networks have a tendency to be biased. As for academic work, I really don't analyze it. I believe that if the teacher brings a certain thing up then we must need to know it. I will never question a teacher's reasoning to teach me something. Unless the idea has questions upon itself. Professional endeavors have always been a constant analysis for me. I have always questioned myself about my endeavors. If I am doing the right thing, on the right path, or will it benefit me later in life. I will just have to wait and see.
I am a pretty open-minded person, I don't know if this class will alter my thinking but I will know by what people think about what I have to say. If what I say is helpful or does nothing at all. By the end of the term, I just think I will have a better idea of what other people think. If I share the same ideas and likeness with them or if I have different opinions and views of certain things. I am looking forward to find out.
