Debate and Argumentation is a course structured around encouraging critical-thinking skills by having students regularly participate in structured debates. Students will learn about the basic elements of argument, how to identify logical fallacies, find and utilize credible sources, conduct independent research, incorporate rhetorical techniques, and participate in debates in which they will be expected to argue a point-of-view. By the end of the semester, students will be able to organize and prepare well-thought arguments regarding a range of topics.
