Critical Reasoning for Beginners
Are you confident you can reason clearly? Are you able to convince others of your point of view? Are you able to give plausible reasons for believing what you believe? Do you sometimes read arguments in the newspapers, hear them on the television, or in the pub and wish you knew how to confidently evaluate them? In this six-part course, you will learn all about arguments, how to identify them, how to evaluate them, and how not to mistake bad arguments for good. Such skills are invaluable if you are concerned about the truth of your beliefs, and the cogency of your arguments.

Hope the teacher could correct the few mistakes in the slides. She corrected them in her speeches, but if people are just scanning through the slides, it can be quite confusing.

Good, but a bit too much fluff
The instructor is entertaining, but I feel as though there is a bit too much fluff and the material could have been looked over quicker.

Brilliant
Very clearly explained, even the newest student would understand the concepts.
