Which parts of what they say contribute to the argument? Why are they arguing instead of fighting? What are arguments made of? What forms do they take? Think Again: How to Understand Arguments will answer these questions a more. In this course, you will learn what an argument is. The definition of argument will enable students to identify when speakers are giving arguments and when they are not. Next, we will learn how to break an argument into its essential parts, and how to fill in gaps in an argument. By the end of this course, students will be better able to understand and appreciate arguments that they and other people present.&nbsp;</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Course duration:</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">Approx. 16 hours to complete.</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Course topics:</h3><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Week 1: Welcome to the Course:</li></ul><p>Welcome to Think Again: How to Understand Arguments. This course is the first in a series of four courses jointly titled Think Again: How to Reason and Argue. We are excited that you are taking this course, and we hope that you will stick around for all four courses in the series, because there is a great deal of important material to learn. In the series as a whole, you will learn how to analyze and evaluate arguments and how to avoid common mistakes in reasoning. These important skills will be useful to you in deciding what to believe and what to do in all areas of your life.&nbsp;</p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">How to Spot an Argument:</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">CONTENT: In this week's material we will teach you how to identify arguments as opposed to abuse . We will define what an argument is, distinguish various purposes for which arguments are given (including persuasion, justification, and explanation), and discuss the material out of which arguments are made (language).&nbsp;</p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Week 2: How to Untangle an Argument:</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">CONTENT: This week&rsquo;s material will focus on the special language in which arguments are formulated. We will investigate the functions of particular words, including premise and conclusion markers plus assuring, guarding, discounting, and evaluative terms. Identifying these words will enable students to separate arguments from the irrelevant verbiage that surrounds it and then to break the argument into parts and to identify what each part of an argument is doing.&nbsp;</p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Week 3: How to Reconstruct an Argument:</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">CONTENT: This week&rsquo;s material will teach you how to organize the parts of an argument in order to show how they fit into a structure of reasoning. The goal is to make the argument look as good as possible so that you can learn from it. We work through the main steps of reconstruction, including putting the premises and conclusion into a standard form, clarifying the premises and breaking them into parts, arranging the argument into stages or sub-arguments, adding suppressed premises where needed to make the argument valid.&nbsp;</p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Week 4: Catch-Up and Final Quiz:</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">This week gives you time to catch up and review, because we realize that the previous weeks include a great deal of challenging material. It will also be provide enough time to take the final quiz as often as you want, with different questions each time. We explain the answers in each exam so that you can learn more and do better when you try the exam again. You may take the quiz as many times as you want in order to learn more and do better, with different questions each time. You will be able to retake the quiz three times every eight hours. You might not need to take more than one version of the exam if you do well enough on your first try. That is up to you. However many versions you take, we hope that all of the exams will provide additional learning experiences.&nbsp;</p><h3 style="text-align: justify;">Course costs:</h3><p style="text-align: justify;">You can either:</p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Purchase course for $30 USD:</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">Commit to earning a Certificate&mdash;it's a trusted, shareable way to showcase your new skills.</p><ul><li style="text-align: justify;">Or full course<span dir="RTL">&nbsp;</span>for free, no certificate:</li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;">You will still have access to all course materials for this course.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>See more available <a href="https://www.for9a.com/en/opportunity/category/Scholarships/Master">Master&rsquo;s scholarships</a> on For9a</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>See more available&nbsp;</strong><span dir="RTL"><a href="https://www.for9a.com/en/opportunity/category/Grants"><strong><span dir="LTR">grants</span></strong></a></span><strong>&nbsp;on For9a</strong></p>
