5HWXUQWR6HFWLRQ0HQXditions of philosophical reasoning. The Honors version ofthis course emphasizes critical thinking and group discussions,requires a student presentation, and expects thatthe student is prepared and willing to engage the coursematerial actively and independently. Prerequisite: ENC 1101.Gordon Rule (3,000). (TR) (DV)PHI 2010 INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY 3 cr. hrs.When people think hard about themselves, their values,their knowledge and belief systems, their lives, and theirplace in the world, they are doing philosophy. The coursesurveys the history of philosophy and introduces studentsto important contemporary issues and positions. Studentsbecome able to ground their personal philosophies in traditionsof philosophical reasoning. Prerequisite: ENC 1101.Gordon Rule (3,000). (TR) (DV)PHI 2100 INTRODUCTION TO APPLIED LOGIC3 cr. hrs.This course deals with solving practical problems and withquestions that must be answered to evaluate argument. Itoffers rules for improving quality thinking and explains thecommon fallacies so that poor argument can be recognizedand challenged. Induction, deduction, language, evidence,and statistics are also addressed.
