  1.  Ask questions--a student at a desk with hand raised.
  2.  Define terms--a dictionary
  3.  Examine the evidence--a detective's magnifying glass
  4.  Tolerate uncertainty--a cartoon face with a big question mark
  5.  Avoid emotional reasoning--a monkey with a briefcase and the phrase "no monkey business"?  Well... I did think of some caricature of a politician, but thought this would not register with my students.
  6.  Examine different viewpoints--a picture of the fabled elephant felt up by the blind men
  7.  Don't over-simplify--????
  8.  Examine assumptions and biases????
