WRTR 2304 - Hilltop Scholars Writing and Critical Reasoning


Credits: 3

Teaches students to analyze arguments by employing high order critical thinking skills. Students learn to identify sound from faulty premises, detect logical fallacies, distinguish strong from weak conclusions, evaluate sources and become information literate. To demonstrate an understanding of the techniques of critical reasoning, students write essays, conduct research, and engage in a variety of additional university-level writing assignments. This course satisfies the CC Critical Reasoning (CR) Foundation requirement. Students who have already taken another course that fulfills the Critical Reasoning requirement cannot take this course. Students must earn a D- or better to pass this course.  Prerequisite: C- or better in WRTR 2303 . Restricted to students in the Hilltop Scholars Program.
