Critical thinking?

For class i have to present an article and explain how it will effect me, my school, my state, and my country. I chose an article on the current job recession and how the unemployment rate went up to 5%.

Along with that, we have to ask three critical thinking( as in they can not have a yes or no answer) questions to the class. For ex: Knowing the current job market, will this change your career or major in college?



I need a couple more ...any ideas?

Your question is a %26quot;yes%26quot; or %26quot;no%26quot; one. Say, %26quot;How will this information change your career or major in college?%26quot;



%26quot;Does a 5% unemployment rate mean that every in every job there is that rate? Why might there be a much lower unemployment rate in some jobs?%26quot; The answer is that in areas such as healthcare, there are too few people going into the field, and too few places in colleges for students, to meet the current need in most of the US. So, there are high unemployment rates in areas such as auto assembly since we are losing those jobs, which leads to another question, %26quot;what kinds of things create higher unemployment.%26quot; That would be sending jobs to other countries. Think of some more questions, though, and rephrase them so that they are more your own questions.

Beginning a question with %26quot;if%26quot; is always a way to get people thinking.



For example--



If you lost your job because of the recession, how would it affect your family?
