Formal Logic I: Categorical Logic Course Overview:

Formal Logic -MyFunScience.comIn this single-semester class, we study the “the art and science of reasoning well” and discover that accurate facts are not enough… valid reasoning is just as important! We will start off by defining terms, forming and interpreting statements, and composing valid syllogisms. Next we’ll use these skills to analyze arguments and prove validity.

Formal Logic I: Categorical Logic encourages students to expand the “generally good” standard of inductive reasoning to the full certainty of deductive reasoning. Deductive Logic is foundational to subjects ranging from debate to geometry, computer programming, and professional investigation.

Prerequisites:

High School level reasoning skills.

Course Reviews:

I just got through taking the unit two test and I just want to say “thank you!” I am so thankful that you created a logic page on Quizlet. The repetition with vocabulary and rules of inference and replacement has been so helpful. I feel really good about this test. Again, thank you for being such a wonderful teacher. I am so glad I am able to take logic with you. You’re fabulous and I just want to say thank you for all your hard work and effort. I have learned so much and repetition has been my best friend. Thanks for everything, Mrs. Barnosky! And thank you for the time you spend working with your students.

What were some of Mrs. Barnosky’s strengths? “Responding to homework submissions, caring about making class interesting, and making changes as the need became apparent.”
