What I've learned

I have learned so much this semester. This class really taught me how to depict and form valid arguments. After every lesson, I would be able to notice every time people had weak arguments or used fallacies. It was very eye opening to learn what makes up a weak argument and how frequent they are made. For instance, the book used examples of fallacies that were very relative to me, so I realized that sometimes when I reason, I am using fallacies or making an invalid argument. This class also taught me how to work very well with a group. Staying in the same group was nice because we learned each other’s strengths and weaknesses. The final project (group facilitation) was very helpful because it was like a real life situation that we had to deal with. It also was interesting to see our peers reasoning and then picking apart their arguments in the analysis. Overall, this class was very helpful and I’m glad I took it.
