Social Interaction in Everyday Life
A fundamental feature of social life is social interaction, or the ways in which people act with other people and react to how other people are acting. To recall John Donne, no one is an island. This means that all individuals, except those who choose to live truly alone, interact with other individuals virtually every day and often many times in any one day. For social order, a prerequisite for any society, to be possible, effective social interaction must be possible. Partly for this reason, sociologists interested in microsociology have long tried to understand social life by analyzing how and why people interact the way they do.
Social Constructions of Reality
Social construction focuses on how meaning is created, and that knowledge is a social product, collaboratively created by society. As a member of society, the
I ask two things of each of you. First, consider if YOU are truly a critical thinker. Do you meet the standards of critical thinking listed under the result section on the "Why critical thinking" page of your booklet? Do YOU adhere to any of the "It's true statements..." listed on the "Problem of egocentric thinking" page? Are YOU truly a critical thinker or do you simply want to believe that you are? Is it a good thing to be a critical thinker? If yes, why? If no, why not?
Second, please thoughtfully and thoroughly read the "Universal Intellectual Standards" pages in your booklet and provide us your thoughts and feelings. Furthermore, discuss which universal intellectual standard listed you believe is the most difficult to apply to critical thinking? Why?
In our first discussion on critical thinking, we established that there are some serious flaws in our patterns of thinking. We even supported the idea that much of our non-assessed thinking is biased, partial and prejudiced. Consider some of the ramifications of this reality. Remember that our thinking affects every aspect of our life including our personal relationships, level of success at work, and even how we view the world, others and even ourselves.
Note on the bottom of the page titled, Why Critical Thinking? in the Miniature Guide to Critical Thinking that a higher level of thinking (i.e., critical thinking) is self-directed, self-disciplined, self-monitored, and self-corrective. In other words, each of us individually becomes ultimately responsible for how we think! We cannot and should not allow others to do our thinking for us. In addition, we should often critique our thinking and try to improve it (some of the ways we can d
