aAnthem Critical Thinking and Writing Skills: An Introductory Guidea helps readers in the process of critical thinking and persuasive speaking and writing. The concepts of critical thinking and evaluation are presented in a clear, easy-to-understand format. Students learn how to form a proposition, identify issues, gather evidence, and process an argument. Logic games, puzzles, and real life examples ask students to evaluate how we evaluate, analyze, and decide. Then a more formal look at induction and deduction challenges students to practice higher-level thinking skills, such as the use of analogies for evaluation, and working through syllogisms to process ideas. Instruction is included on processing a formal persuasive paper. Readers can have some literary logic fun by analyzing old standards like aLove is a Fallacya and the persuasive love poem aThe Passionate Shepherda. Short chapters and clear practice exercises make the book easy to use as a basic or supplemental text.Index Practice in Analogies 34 Analogy, Metaphor and Simile 34 Chapter Review 35 5 Deductive Reasoning 37 ... 3 Answers to Logic Test 123 Appendix 4 Persuasive Research Paper Rubric 127 129 1 INTRODUCTION TO CRITICALanbsp;...
