You are a Training Specialist
hired by Universal Medical Supplies, Inc. This organization has been
experiencing low productivity and errors in communication in the workplace. As
part of an ongoing professional development series, the Vice President of the
Human Resources department has tasked you with creating Critical Thinking
training materials. The materials will be presented in many forms and by
various means to help improve productivity and communication in the
organization.
For a short training presentation during a regional meeting, you
have been asked to create a 3- to 5-minute video presentation illustrating the
differences between deductive and inductive argument.
Use PowerPoint and a video recording program such as
Screencast-O-Matic to create a training video that is 3-5 minutes in length and
includes the following elements:
Bullet points
with brief text that outlines deductive reasoning.
Bullet points
with brief text that outlines inductive reasoning.
Clip art or
images to accompany your text. You may use characters, cartoons, drawing
tools, or other technologies to be creative.
Narration
related to the bullet points to explain:
·
The principles underlying both deductive and inductive
reasoning.
·
Clear examples of both deductive and inductive reasoning in a
workplace setting.
References to
your sources at the end of the video.
To create a video, you may use a video recording program on your
personal device or a free web-based video recording and editing application.
Be sure to proofread for grammar and spelling. Add your sources
in APA formatting on a separate page.
To submit your project, upload your recording as embedded code,
a link, or a file.
