By "tools science" I mean, the science which provided us with the ways to understand an end or a purpose. I think we can classify this class under the science of the "tools science". No one can do without the using of the arguments in our life, professors, engineers, lawyers, religious people, lay people, politicians, public leaders and students are in need to be a ware of this class. "How to think" is a class that i very vital for all the people who are working in any fields of our life.
the reasons which are motivated me to do that are mainly related to the main purpose of the class.
I believe this course is one of the most important classes that I have been enrolled in. Great course, great teachers, just be aware you may get really confused with his lectures if you are not familiar with basic high school/college level science. After receiving a 33.3% on a quiz because I did not comprehend the definitions of some very easy vocab words I gave up. It was so frustrating because I was always able to follow along with the instructor at first but every time he went to expand on his thoughts he COMPLETELY lost me and I suddenly had no idea what he was trying to say. I am an English Literature/History gal myself and had NO IDEA what he was talking about. The first couple lecture videos the instructor often pulled examples from physics, astronomy or other sciences to better explain the philosophical points he was reviewing. I was very disappointed that this course turned out not to be for me. I unfortunately ended up having to drop the course a week in.
Very valuable information for someone in any career field. The course material and the course itself is great. There will be short ungraded quizzes after each segment (to check comprehension) and a longer graded quiz at the end of the course. Students who want more detailed explanations or additional exercises or who want to explore these topics in more depth should consult Understanding Arguments: An Introduction to Informal Logic, Ninth Edition, Concise, Chapters 1-5, by Walter Sinnott-Armstrong and Robert Fogelin.Įach week will be divided into multiple video segments that can be viewed separately or in groups. By the end of this course, you will be better able to understand and appreciate arguments that you and other people present. Next, you will learn how to break an argument into its essential parts, how to put them in order to reveal their connections, and how to fill in gaps in an argument by adding suppressed premises. The definition of argument will enable you to identify when speakers are giving arguments and when they are not. In this course, you will learn what an argument is.
