10.10 - Pathos -> Logical Fallacy

At the beginning of today's class, I explained the formal analysis work we would do for logical fallacies. For this assignment, people will be watching the gubernatorial debate that took place yesterday in Waterville between Elliot Cutler, Governor LePage, and Mike Michaud. Everyone will be responsible for taking notes on each candidates response to any four questions in the debate and then what logical fallacies were present in their response. Individuals will then analyze the impact that these fallacies have on the speaker's argument.

Everyone then had the rest of the period to begin working on this assignment.

You may view the debate here:

Thursday 10/09/14

A number of people still needed to finish their annotations and responses for the formal analysis of pathos which was due today.

Handouts:

Gubernatorial Debate: Logical Fallacy Analysis

Only the notes on responses and fallacies needs to be completed at this point 

(not the analysis resposne on the third page)

Logical Fallacy Note Sheet

Homework:

Watch the gubernatorial debate from 10.09.14 in Waterville and take note of the candidates' responses to any four questions and then note what logical fallacies (if any) occur in their responses.

If you did not have your formal pathos analysis done for today, complete it this weekend.
There will be a revision deadline for next Friday where work can still be turned in.
