Quiz #2 will be held at the beginning of class on Thursday, April 19th. It will last 25 minutes, and is worth 7.5% of your overall grade. The quiz is on everything we've discussed since the midterm, including these fallacies:
- Appeal to Authority
- False Dilemma
- Slippery Slope
- The Naturalistic Fallacy
And the psychological impediments we've discussed from chapter 4 in class:
- Direct Experience
- Memory
- Anecdotal Evidence & Hearsay
- Confirmation & Disconfirmation Bias
- Statistical Biases
- Overconfidence (I'M-SPECIAL-ism)
- Social Pressures
The quiz will contain a mix of short answer questions and arguments that contain fallacies.
