Deductive/Inductive Logic - Thesis/Supporting Arguments/Evidence


Today we:

  • Distinguished between deductive & inductive logic
  • Noted that historians mainly use inductive logic - gathering evidence from primary source documents in order to state a thesis (main argument) backed by supporting arguments
  • Worked on writing a thesis with supporting arguments & evidence by doing a simple thesis-writing exercise on "The Nicest Person I Know"

Assignment: Due Monday

  • Finish filling out the table on "The Nicest Person I Know' - Either email it to me or link me to it.
  • Finish writing the essay on "The Nicest Person I Know"
  • Post your essay to your blog.
  • Include a picture of the person if you can.
