Discussion 

As we learned this week, it is important to avoid making logical fallacies in our writing. A reader who finds flaws in the logic of an argument is less likely to be persuaded by that claim. Fallacies in our logic discredits our writing and essentially weakens our argument.

After reflecting on the fallacies laid out in your Realizeit Module this week, think about the argument you are drafting. In the discussion, identify the flaws in logic you see yourself making as you construct your argument. Reflect on how you can avoid falling into those traps. Also, tell your peers if you’ve encountered any fallacies through your research.

As peers, let's continue this discussion by helping one another develop strategies to identify and avoid logical fallacies.  Give suggestions for how we can strengthen the logic in our own arguments.
