The development and refinement of critical thinking skills necessary for the evaluation and production of both academic and argumentative writing will be emphasized. This includes the study of the application of these skills in everyday situations such as moral thinking, problem-solving, belief formation, and decision-making. Additionally, arguments will be studied within the context of philosophical perspectives, texts, subject matter, and approaches to epistemology.
