Class 05 Psychological: Cognitive Tools / Reasoning

The icon is an example of a commonly used logical fallacy in the court room and in efforts to influence opinions. C may well be an A, but the above is not a logical argument to support the assertion. Considering all of the assigned material and the cross talk on constructs, write a formal 750 word essay on the topic of perspectives. When you have finished your essay, copy and paste it into the Class of Discussion Board. In addition go to your own computer and paste a copy into your World View Term Paper.

As a final step, read as many of the other essays as it takes to give you a sense of how your thinking compares with that of others. As you read these postings give a “thumbs up” + sign in the reply section to any essay that took you in some important way beyond your own thinking, and a double ++ to flag a truly outstanding essay. The relative number of +’s received is one way to gain an evaluation your own work.
