  • PHI 103 Week 1 Quiz
  • Logic can do a great deal in helping us
    understand our arguments. Explain what advantages
    we obtain by studying logic in terms of improving
    our reasoning. Consider a debate over whether
    prayer should be allowed in public schools.

  • PHI 103 Week 3 DQ 1 (Considering the fallacies
    discussed in Chapter Four)
  • Read Stereotyping Has Lasting Negative Impact
    Prejudice has lingering effects,study shows and
    watch How Pre-existing Beliefs Distort Logical
    Reasoning.
  • Considering the fallacies discussed in Chapter
    Four of An Introduction to Logic, construct three
    different arguments that display distinct
    fallacies. Give an explanation of why each makes
    a mistake in drawing the conclusion it does.
    Review your classmates examples and see if they,
    in fact, commit the fallacy identified.

    will not be fooled by these fallacies having
    studied logic?

  • PHI 103 Week 4 Critical Thinking Quiz
  • PHI 103 Week 4 DQ 1 (Scientists design
    experiments and try to obtain results)
  • Mrs.Orlof teaches two history classes, one in the
    morning and one in the afternoon. Yesterday she
    gave the same test to both classes. Anyone who
    failed the test must take a retest. Since a
    greater percentage of students who took the
    morning test failed the test than students
  • DQ 1 As stated in our text book scientists
    design experiments and try to obtain results
    verifying or disproving a hypothesis, but
    philosophers are the driving force in determining
    what factors determine the validity of scientific
    results. (Mosser, 2011). Karl Popper's
    philosophy of science uses modus as the central
    method of disconfirming, or falsifying,
    scientific hypotheses.

    connectives.
  • Imagine someone asks you what you have learned in
    your logic class and what you found to be the
    most useful information you learned there. Is it
    important for people to study logic? What kinds
    of mistakes might they make without having been
