Ringkasan

This book author-Erik Palmer offers practical suggestions for building the habits of mind that lead not only to rich and powerful classroom discourse but also to thoughtful and responsible citizenship. he reveals how all students, not just those in advanced classes, can begin developing sophisticated reasoning skills that will improve their oral and written communications. Adding theory with practice, Palmer shares more of classroom-tested lessons, including ways to understand argument in paintings and images, address ad hominem attacks using a travelling debate, create a class comedy club, write syllogisms, analyze character and plot development, and teach logic through a class Booger Patrol. He explains complex concepts in simple, practical language that gives teachers a deft understanding of the principles of good arguments, proper use of evidence, persuasive techniques, and rhetorical tricks.
