You use reasoning every day, probably without noticing it.
This lesson is about making you aware of how we use reasoning so that we can learn how to do it well and see when others are doing it badly.
There are a few different types of reasoning, but we're going to talk about two that we use every day:
- Cause & effect (or causal) reasoning
- Criteria & match (or categorical) reasoning
There won’t be a lot of writing in this lesson. It’s mostly reading & thinking.
