Description
This is a first course in logic, and thus there is no prerequisite for taking this course. I assume that students have not studied logic in any systematic way. So, we will start from the basics and proceed step by step.In a nutshell, logic is the science of evaluating arguments. So, we start by asking what anargument is. You make an argument when you present a claim together with reasons that youtake to support the claim. Logicians are interested in evaluating arguments in a systematic way,that is, they want to find a general test of whether a given set of reasons is sufficient to back up a claim. Logic has made great advances for the last one hundred years. This course will introduce students to some of the most important achievements of modern logic. The ultimate goal of this course is to improve the critical reasoning ability and possibly prepare for those exams that test the ability.
