学生学习/行政单位成果

phill -006(逻辑入门)的第一个SLO, “评估, 分析和批评论点,体现了哲学学科作为一个整体的许多焦点(并符合GELO区域E), 第二个结果).正如参与我们SLO讨论的哲学系教员所指出的那样, "we live in a world of fake 'facts' which are often used in argument"; "students need to focus on identifying hidden assumptions" and "learn to think about their own thinking (in terms of identifying biases and even prejudices)."Faculty use a variety of methods to accomplish this SLO (not only for this particular course but across all 哲学 courses), including refining writing assignments so students can imagine responses of the original writer to questions about assumptions; encouraging more thoughtful consideration of evidence needed for extraordinary claims; using journals to reflect on one's own thinking; and, 菲尔- 006, using practice exercises with extensive feedback so students come to understand the shape of philosophical argumentation; and the introduction of rules, 真值表, 以及用来评价演绎论证的维恩图.教师报告一些进展, with innovative approaches (such as the use of Flipgrid video discussions and the gamification of the Aristotelian Square of Opposition), 在学生达到这个结果时, 虽然它的基本性质要求不断努力提高掌握.
