Fallacies Mini Project
Directions: In order to familiarize ourselves a bit more with the logical fallacies that we studied in chapter 17 of your Everything's an Argument book, you are going to divide yourselves into groups of two to teach the class about a type of fallacy using a short Google slides presentation. If there is an odd number of students, I will allow a group of three ? you will have to do an additional historical or modern day example of the fallacy.
You are responsible for the following items within your Google slides presentation: Title slide with name of fallacy Define the type of fallacy Modern example (one group member will be responsible for this) o Show an example of a current-day advertisement, news clip, public service announcements, political campaigns, etc. that uses this fallacy o Explain the example and how it is using/showing the fallacy Historical example (one group member will be responsible for this) o Show an example of this fallacy from the past ? can be an advertisement, etc. (Hint ? a lot of these have been used in propaganda for WWII or other historical events). o Explain the example and how it is using/showing the fallacy
You will have 45 minutes to work on your project on 3/21 (1st & 3rd hours) or 3/22 (6th hour). The project is due on 4/13 (1st & 3rd hours) & 4/16 (6th hour).
o These dates might be altered due to testing. Your group needs to share your Google slides project to me prior to your class on the due date. Your group needs to print out your slides (3 slides per page) prior to class on the due date. In addition, you will have a quiz over the fallacies on 4/23 (1st & 3rd hours) or 4/24 (6th hour).
o These dates might be altered due to testing.

Flashpoints of Emotional Argument A. Scare Tactics B. Either-Or Choices C. Slippery Slope D. Sentimental Appeals E. Bandwagon Appeals
Flashpoints of Ethical Argument F. Appeals to False Authority G. Dogmatism H. Moral Equivalence I. Ad Hominem Arguments
