Unit 2.2: Argument Diagrams
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- For simple arguments, the straight-line method of argument reconstruction works well enough. But for more involved pieces of reasoning, we should consider a different method, namely, visually diagramming the argument to capture the complexities of its logical structure, which will often yield better results. This 10 minute video explains one method for doing so.
Wow. I've seen some great videos on argument mapping; and read some interesting accounts in articles. But, in under ten minutes, Dr Fitzgerald makes so clear what it's all about and gives you that 'penny has dropped' moment. I just can't stop watching these videos now! Thank you for posting.
In a logic and critical thinking class, and I was so confused. This has been the most helpful explanation so far.
thank you, i have an exam today and this was really helpful!
That was great Dr. Fitzgerald, new subscriber. I have to listen to it again.
Anyone here from Stellies 114?
8:31 What do we do if (1) is an opinion like in your example? The premise isn’t very solid…

Why wouldn’t the last 3 be independent?
2 and 3 are independent from each other, but they are both joint progresses with premise 1.
It's also worth noting that none of these arguments are deductively valid. They are all missing major premises.
what the hell were these examples. No narrative here
You have to take critical thinking to understand.
@@jessicabonner5382 My comment was to point out the oddly political examples that were used.
Trump loves dictators ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@joelopez3552 What is wrong with political examples? They were all supported by objective premises e.g. "Gay marriage is unconstitutional" and "American leaders should not encourage the behaviour of dictators" - are you saying these are not factually objective premises?
@@blueowl718 no they are just oddly political and threw me off. My professors examples weren’t tied to politics or what he believed Trump was doing.
Any one from bs 3rd 😅
you need to clarify the content
Have to give Mr. Fitsgerald the ol Ad Block for the Left-leaning foolishness.
every video I try to find on youtube for my critical thinking class is politically biased and its getting really annoying. A whole unit of this class is all about looking for bias from media, sources etc and most the ones linked by the professor are like this. This one I found on my own, but I just want to be able to be taught the concepts without an example taking a jab at trump or bush or something. It;s just unprofessional.
It's about the concept, not the content. When things are more relatable, it is easier to digest for the masses. I wouldn't care if he used Beyonce, Dolly, the Cookie Monster, or Dora the Explorer; as long as the content is relatable making it digestible, it is appreciated and much easier to learn
