So, let’s start by looking at the debates. What does each candidate seem to have as a strategy? How successful are they? How does the LEP mix work for each?
Here are 10 logical fallacies. Research them here and then create 3 short paragraphs, 2 of which are examples of fallacies and 1 which is meant to be logically consistent. In class, we’ll run these paragraphs and see if the class can guess which is which. Make sure that it’s not obvious that you using a fallacy.
- Circular Argument
- Slippery Slope
- Either/Or
- Post Hoc
- Anecdotal Fallacy
- Gambler’s Fallacy
- Hasty Generalization
- Ad Hominem
- Straw Man
- Tu Quoque
Then, we’ll try the poster activity before we give a shot at the first few sections of Civil Disobedience.
HW: Hefty pre-write for CD/Letter C/C.
