Brief course description
A fallacy is a poorly reasoned argument and those are all around us and even unintentionally come out of our own mouths sometimes!
Avoiding fallacies is a crucial skill, especially in the age of information we live in! The internet is full of debates. Full of arguments. And full of fallacies and tricks!
After this short course you will no longer have to look up what people are talking about – after this course you will be explaining and pointing out what has been wrongly argued and why.
