Document Summary

Inquiry: gathering information before making a judgment; inquiry allows people to gain more knowledge and understanding of an issue, while examining all viewpoints to make a logical statement/conclusion (even if they need to question their original viewpoint) Critical evaluation is a step in inquiry where you have to evaluate all views and decide which are more valid then others (by weighing the pros/cons of each); only then can you come up with a reasoned judgment. Critical evaluation is based on a criteria: criteria is the relevant considerations providing a basis to make a judgment. When reading different materials, one must consider that the arguments are biased (only favoring one perspective) Fallacies: when a weak argument is worded in a persuasive and powerful way. Counter-examples: when arguing, it is good to look at both sides of the argument. You can use inquiry in many different situations; it can be presented as a conversation, written research or a formal decision making process.
