청소년을 위한 로스쿨 - 논리적 오류, 1부

Welcome to my class on Logical Fallacies! This course helps students learn to recognize poor thinking, which is important in every area of life - including law!

I taught this subject for many years at a public school and understanding this concept help my students be better thinkers, reason better, and write more persuasively.

Why is it important to learn about Logical Fallacies?

Because a logical fallacy is an error in reasoning that creates an invalid argument. 

And if you don't know that you're arguments are invalid, then you don't know if your arguments are going of track - or if your arguments are even good arguments!

In this class, I will share with the learner one logical fallacy per video.

The logical fallacies covered in this class are the Appeal to Emotions, Appeal to Anonymous Authority, Appeal to Accomplishment, Appeal to Popularity, and Appeal to Fear.

We will start out each class with a quick overview of the fallacy with the teacher, then we will go over some examples. 

After the examples, your student will be encouraged to try a bunch of practice problems on their own and then come back to the video to listen to the explanation to see if they are correct.

After students complete all of the practice problems, there will be an optional assignment to try the logical fallacy on their own. They will be asked to create two versions of the fallacy and one version of a correct way to argue a point.

This will help cement the ideas in their minds so that they recognize the fallacy in the future.

This is one of the subjects I started teaching as a high school teacher that really helped students learn to be better thinkers and spot arguments that others make that are fallacious in nature.

I hope you enjoy the class!
