Common Logical Fallacies Thou Shalt Not Commit Logical Fallacies

What is a logical fallacy? A logical fallacy is an inaccurate or misleading application of logic. It is important to be able to recognize logical fallacies to avoid being exploited or swindled by writers or speakers who want your money, your voice, or your vote. It is also important to avoid using logical fallacies in your own argumentation, because honesty is an essential quality of effective persuasion.

As you watch the video (Beginning to 7:40), record the speakers’ explanation of each common fallacy and his example on your note sheet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qb-h0sXkH4

After you finish up your notes, read through each fallacy on the handout and discuss each fallacy with your classmates. Whenever possible, provide additional examples of the fallacies to add to the margins of you notes.
