M2: W7 | Warm-up \\ Thinking About Your Thinking

Warm-Up Overview

This warm-up will provide you with one way of interrogating your thinking, a necessary step for understanding reactions to disinformation and misinformation. This is more involved than, say, a Buzzfeed quiz, but it is not going to give you an exact "measure" of something. In fact, I am asking you directly which thinking styles you most identify with.

Task

To accomplish this warm-up, follow these steps:

1. Read through What Kind of Thinker Are You? and watch the video below (or directly on YouTube) to identify the various attributes of who you are as a thinker.
2. Identify 1-2 kinds of thinker that you believe best describes you and consider what that says about how you interact with information.
3. Respond to the questions below.
