Chapter V: Informal Fallacies. Review Study Guide.

Directions: Go to page 181-182 in your text for Chapter 5. There you will find “Summary” of the chapter. Under each heading in text, and given below, type in one or two of the important bullet paragraphs you would like to remember and comment on it. Remember to reference the text.

Fallacies of Irrelevant Premises: Here you want to tell us about at least two fallacies that you will remember.

Fallacies of Unacceptable Premises: Here you want to tell us about at least two fallacies that you will remember.  

1. Persuaders: Here you want to tell us about Rhetorical Devices or Moves you will remember.
2. Feedback from the professor: 
3. Ok, now I have feedback from a teacher and she did not give me any points: here is her feedback

Directions not adhered to: So, type in the whole bullet paragraph you chose, not just parts of it. “When Claims Conflict” is the heading, but the bullets under this is what you focus on. Then, you can tell us why it’s important. It states that in directions. “Summary” is on pages 145-146. Your answers are not “wrong” but they just don’t do what the directions ask for. This is meant to be a Review procedure for you. You can edit and resubmit.

So, on the Review Study Guide chapter 4, the directions asked you to go to a certain page, read the Summary comprised of subtitles, and bullets. You were asked to choose one “bullet point” from each and type that in. Some you misinterpreted directions. Part of our work as critical thinkers is also to learn to interpret directions on a project correctly. For the most part, what it says to do, is what you should do. In the real world, sometimes there are no directions and one has to figure it out, but for us, these are exercises in applying different thought processes, for example this last assignment asks you to just (verbatim) type in one bullet point then comment on it. Having experience with multiple procedures and thought processes will help us when later on, in the real world, one may have to work with directions from a supervisor, or with little directions
