Transfers ToCSUDescriptionCritical thinking is an important component of sociology; the sociological imagination requires us to step back, to ask questions, and to evaluate evidence. This class explores some of the major social problems and social issues experienced by society today. In the study of social problems, this course utilizes both inductive and deductive forms of reasoning, including identifying formal and informal fallacies and analyzes the evidence on which conclusions are based. The application of critical thinking strengthens and heightens the social awareness of students concerning major social problems today.
