Use at least one quote from this week’s course material within one of your discussion prompt responses to support your thoughts in your initial post. Be sure to use APA referencing and include the reference. Just as a reminder the citation may be inline. For example: The author says “Critical thinking is a collection of skills we use every day that are necessary for our full intellectual and personal development” (Boss, 2021, p.28). You must then ALSO include underneath your post: Boss, J. (2021). THiNK: Critical thinking and logic skills for everyday life (5th ed.). McGraw-Hill Education. For more guidance see the Center for Writing Excellence.
