Fallacy Detective
6th-8th Grade
Tuesday 9:00
Material Fee: $50
Description: Students will identify how they, as individuals, think critically and explore common perceptions and misconceptions that exist about logic. The activities within this unit incorporate individual reflection by students, small group work, and larger group/class discussions, and endeavor for students to learn how to discern true and untrue statements using logic and fact. Students are presented with various statements and are tasked with determining whether these statements are factually true and whether they are logically valid. We recognize that students may have limited background factual knowledge before starting these activities, so some exercises are intended more as a way for students to evaluate how they think and how to create logically valid statements. By learning how to identify logically and factually true and untrue statements, students will, by the end of this unit, be able to create and evaluate statements (even with limited factual knowledge) and critique common misconceptions.
