This course provides students with the opportunity to study the principles of reasoning and their application to the analysis and
evaluation of political and marketplace communication. It examines the structure of argument, underlying assumptions, the
quality of evidence used to support claims, the use of language, the discovery of formal and informal fallacies, and the effect of
print and electronic media on argumentation. The course examines historical and contemporary approaches to persuasive
messages. It also focuses on advocacy and the presentation of persuasive appeals, and learning to construct, deliver, and critique
persuasive messages. This course emphasizes the integration of critical thinking principles with techniques of effective written
and spoken argument.
