Over the course of this semester, I have learned a lot. Most
importantly, this course stressed the importance of critical thinking and how
it helps us in arguments and decision-making. We also learned what fallacies
were and how to identify them in conversations and arguments. Inductive and
deductive reasoning was a big part of this course too. We spent a lot of time
differentiating them and using it in our reasoning. Another thing we learned
were the different parts of an argument, such as the premises and the
conclusion. Functions of language played an important part in arguments because
using a certain language brings about a different end result. Lastly, this
course has taught me how to make a strong argument and to communicate better
with others. I believe the things we have learned this semester will help us in
our future classes and make us better communicators to our peers.
I also learned a lot more than i thought i would through this class. I learned a lot of different types of arguments and also persuasion techniques that could eventually help me convince me to take my side of the subject in the nearby future. Even though i didn't like group projects, this class made it better me for to communicate with others also. The last group project made me realize how we can identify some of the critical thinking terms we learned in real life situations such as emotional reasoning, types of arguments, types of communication, and inductive and deductive reasoning.
