PHILS51B

In this course, students consider the role of learning logic in the Bates curriculum, learn about teaching logic classes, and develop proposals for redesigning the 100-level logic class at Bates. Students choose group projects, which may include topics such as: incorporating more informal logic into the class; building more resources to help future students; Universal Design principles, particularly to help students with learning differences; considering and improving assessment structures, including the currently used specifications grading/competencies assessment structure; the role of logic in the philosophy major. Prerequisite: PHIL 195.
