Answer to Question 1

Based on the levels in the Holistic Critical Thinking Scoring Rubric, unacceptable and weak statements are similar in some ways. But they also differ significantly in that unacceptable presentations include many or most of the somewhat small mistakes listed in that category, whereas weak critical thinking processes consistently commit all or almost all of the errors identified in that category and those errors are more serious too.

Answer to Question 2

The S stands for Scrutinize Processes and Self-Correct as Needed. It is the fifth step in the IDEAS process. Step 5 includes ongoing monitoring, analyzing, and evaluating the consequences of our chosen actions or beliefs. Mid-course corrections may always be necessary, no matter what the decision. As such, this step corresponds to the critical thinking skill of self-regulation.
