Abstract

Sharpen Your Arguments: Fallacy Fighters Workshop
Sharpen your critical thinking through a gamified exploration of argument fallacies! This workshop uses Aristotle's fallacies through the lens of Douglas Walton's framework, and injects them into a thrilling storyline. We'll play chess to identify red herrings, dissect anime for emotional appeals, and strategize through metaphors to conquer straw men. Prepare for role-playing, mystery-solving, and a narrative climax that hinges on identifying the logical fallacy that could unravel the entire case! Leave equipped to recognize and dismantle fallacies in everyday arguments.
