The Art of Argument
16 week / $350

Middle and high school students will argue (and sometimes quarrel), but they won't argue well without good training. Students who complete The Art of Argument will learn how to reason with clarity, relevance, and purpose . . . and will have fun along the way! Informal logic is a foundational subject by which other subjects are evaluated, assessed, and learned. Therefore, students' study and mastery of the 28 logical fallacies will provide an essential lifetime framework for filtering good and bad reasoning as well as writing and speaking effectively.

The student will need:

The Art of Argument book (link), a wire-bound notebook and a pencil or pen.
