| PHL 221H - Critical Thinking-Honors |
|
This course is aimed at developing practical reasoning skills. Students will learn to analyze and evaluate arguments, detect fallacies, distinguish science from pseudo-science, recognize media bias, and better understand methods of deception employed by advertisers, political organizations and others. A central goal of this course is to develop an attitude of fair-mindedness and intellectual honesty while learning to avoid the pitfalls of defensiveness and rationalization. This honors class delves deeper into course topics and requires a high level of student motivation; the pace may be faster than non-honors courses. See the Honors Program website for information. Students cannot receive credit for both PHL 221 and PHL 221H.
