Critical Thinking and Capital Punishment

Capital punishment is a complex and emotional issue. As you research this issue, we encourage you to:

• Analyze all sides of the issue. Actively seek out information that is contrary to your point of view.
• Utilize a variety of sources and formats for finding information.
• Distinguish between fact and opinion.
• Evaluate the information that you find. Is it accurate? Reliable? Relevant? Comprehensive? Who authored the information? What is their background?
• Synthesize information so that you can make informed decisions.
• Use what you learn and understand to ask new questions.
