Critical Thinking Tools
Critical thinking tools can be applied to the public school systems policy on the transferring of non-tenured teachers. “Philosopher Laura Nash suggests asking oneself 12 questions prior to reaching a decision in an ethical dilemma” (Hartman, 2001, p.68). Her question provide a foundation for looking into the ethics of the school systems decision making. Listed below are Nash’s 12 critical thinking questions (p.68): 1. Have you defined the problem accurately? 2. How would you define the problem if you stood on the other side of the fence? 3. How did the situation occur in the first place? 4. Who was involved in the situation in the first place? 5. What is your intention in making this decision? 6. How does this intention compare with likely results? 7. Whom could your decision or action injure? 8. Can you engage the affected parties in a discussion of the problem before you make your decision? 9. Are you confident that your decision will be as valid over a long period as it seems now? 10. Could you disclose, without qualms your
decision or action to your boss, your CEO, the board of directors, your family, or society as a whole? “With the increasing speed and complexity of decision making now demanded within organizations…there is no longer the time or specialist knowledge to be able to analyze issues and respond effectively within the now brief windows of opportunity”
