Back to Week at a Glance
(
Perhaps you noticed that each discussion or assignment can only focus on a small part of each topic
we study. We could spend three or four weeks just on cognition alone! For this Discussion, you get to
decide what we talk about, and can help steer the conversation to the aspects of cognition you find
most fascinating. Be sure to take advantage of the Learning Activity in your resources. It will not take
much time and will clarify our goals for this forum. Your job is to select a topic from the chapter—
whatever interests you most—and develop a question to ask the class. What you find interesting can’t
be right or wrong, but your grade will be based on the degree to which you are able to produce a
question that promotes critical thinking as described in the Learning Activity. Enjoy!

Review the Learning Activity – Developing Discussion Questions That Promote Critical Thinking. This
activity will guide you in how to write a question for this week’s Discussion post that can

Consider what question you could ask your colleagues that promotes critical thinking about some
aspect of cognition across cultures.
After reading Chapter 4 and choosing a Discussion topic, post a question for your colleagues to
respond to.
Your initial post must provide a rationale or background for the question as illustrated in the example
provided in Learning Activity—Developing Discussion Questions That Promote Critical Thinking. Put your
question in the first line of your post, and put your supporting text below that the post.
