Question 1
In your own words, define the following elements of thought: (a) question at issue, (b)
inferences, (c) point of view, and (d) implications. Provide a notional example of each.
a) We can say that a question at issue is a question that helps you to find the line of inquiry
and topic for your essay.
Example: Our topic is “abortion and religion”. We can ask ourselves why
abortion is punished by the church?
b) We can agree that an inference might be defined as a conclusion that was made from
reasoning or obvious events. It’s like guessing but politer.
Example: Your computer shuts off after receiving a message of “low battery”.
We can infer that you ran out of battery.
c) We can define point of view as the way of thinking that one person has about a certain
topic.
Example: If it was up to me, I would choose the red lipstick
d) We can say that an implication is a conclusion drawn about something, but you never
say it directly.
Example: If you score 90% on the exam, then you will get an A at the end of the
course.
Question 2
In your own words, define the following elements of thought: (a) assumptions, (b) purpose, (c)
concepts, and (d) evidence/data. Provide a notional example of each.
a) Assumptions can be defined as “what we think we believe about a topic” without any
proof.
Example: Homeless people is homeless because they don not want to work.
b) Purpose can be defined as the reason of doing something. Like the objective we have
Example: This meeting was made to review the new proposals and share ideas.
c) Concepts can be defined as the essence of something, a general notion, an idea.
Example: The concept of this place is basically vintage.
d) Evidence/ data can be defined as available information to prove something is wrong or
right
Example: After the survey we made, we know that 90% of our population uses
the cellphone in classroom or work.
Question 3
List all nine intellectual standards and define them in terms of a question one would ask
pertaining to each (For example, if "smell" was a standard, your answer would look like the
following... Smell: does the work stink or otherwise deter people based on the odor it emits?).
1. Accuracy is all information correct, error free and reliable for the next step?
2. Precision Are all the details included in the presentation or the data used is not
exact?
3. Clarity is my thinking easy to understand or I should explain myself better?

4. Logical Is my argument reasonable or my conclusions doesn’t follow the evidence?
5. Breadth are all the possibilities considered or should we find more viewpoints?
6. Significance does everything in the list is essential or we left out crucial facts for the
solution?
7. Relevance Are all the important topics included in the program?
8. Fairness Does objectiveness in our arguments is enough to let people participate?
9. Depth Did he give enough arguments for his opinion or are you unsure about his
statement?
Question 4
Refer to the target diagram below. If such a diagram is new to you, do an Internet search to
learn more about it. Describe what each of the four quadrants in the target diagram means in
terms of the intellectual standards "precision" and "accuracy."
An illustrated example of the concepts "accurate" and "precise," depicted in a table. The
columns are "accurate" and "inaccurate (systematic error)," and the rows are "precise" and
"imprecise (reproductibility error)." Each cell contains a picture of a target with three rings: an
outer blue, an inner red, and a center yellow. Multiple darts have hit each target in different
patterns, demonstrating the specified categories:
1) Accurate and precise: Clustered darts at a perfect bull's-eye.
2) Precise and inaccurate: Clustered darts off-center.
