Logic II: Informal Logic – Workbook

Sample

Students learn to analyze and construct arguments in symbolic language using deductive reasoning.

Logic 2 builds on Logic 1’s treatment of the nature of truth, the means of knowing, and the justification of belief. Logic 2 focuses, though, on the formal elements of categorical and propositional logics.

Topics include syllogisms, symbolic language, truth tables, truth trees, and proofs. Also included in Logic 2 are discussions of concept maps and Euler and Venn diagrams.

Students are strongly encouraged to have had at least pre-algebra beforehand. As many students have discovered, studying logic is a vital part of learning to think well.
