The initial stage of cognitive development, defined as dualism by Perry (1970), is defined by Thoma (1993) as: characterized by a view that objective and immutable answers exist for most questions and that authorities or experts know or can discover the eternal truths. The dualism, students hold a black or white, right or wrong, view of the world and have little tolerance for uncertainty and ambiguity. Knowledge is regarded as timeless and absolute. Learning is viewed as a process of the transmission of facts and truths from the teacher to the student.
Paul & Elder (2014) refer to habitual thinking as biased, distorted, partial, uninformed, and often downright prejudiced. Everyone is biased. Any one persons view is always partial, partisan, and problematic (Eisenberg, Goodall, & Tretheway, 2014).
Write a 250 word response to the following:
How can I retarget the mechanism I use to spot bias in others and to spot the bias in myself? This is a tuff question for me, but I guess I can state that for me to change is to reflect on the character in others because sometime those traits are the same ones I may possess.
What is the experience of switching perspectives like for me? I must have facts
How fully am I able to inhabit the perspective of another? I am a person that think for myself and not take what other say or do before I know the facts. Human are animals with their own agenda.
What barriers prevent me from letting go of my own worldview? Values

Perception involves all the ways of becoming aware of things, people, events, or ideas. Judgment involves all the ways of coming to conclusions about what has been perceived. If people differ systematically in what they perceive and in how they reach conclusions, then it is only reasonable for them to differ correspondingly in their interests, reactions, values, motivations, and skills.
