Critical Thinking 1 How to Reason Logically
Rating
0.0 stars

This first chapter explains what it means to be logical—to reason logically. It demonstrates the usefulness of logical reasoning as a means to making more effective decisions about your own life—decisions about what to believe and deci­sions about what to do. The chapter begins a systematic program of study of all the major topics regarding logical reasoning. Along the way, the book focuses on devel­oping the following five skills: (1) writing logically, (2) detecting inconsistency and lack of clarity in a group of sentences, (3) spotting issues and arguments, (4) detecting and avoiding fallacies (reasoning errors), and (5) generating and im­proving arguments and explanations. These skills will be taught here independent of subject matter.

Rating

Social media has become an increasingly popular and convenient platform in recent years. However, it has also given rise to opinions often perceived as factual and reliable, despite being misleading or false. According to two studies conducted by the Pew Research Center, in 2018, 14% of social media users claimed to have changed their views due to the content they saw on social media. This percentage increased to 23% in 2020, representing a significant surge of 60%.
