An Introduction to Logic

"An Introduction to Logic" is a course that teaches students foundational logic principles, emphasizing critical analysis and argument construction. It connects the study of logic to the divine nature of God and human reflection of that image, highlighting the role of logical thinking in daily decision-making. The course primarily uses Patrick J. Hurley’s "A Concise Introduction to Logic 11th Edition." Students will learn to identify and construct arguments, discern between arguments and non-arguments, recognize fallacies, and evaluate the validity and strength of arguments. By the end, they should understand the link between God and logic, and apply logic in ethical contexts.
