At the end of the Curricular Unity course, students should be able to:
• Basics – Distinguish validity and true, good and fallacious arguments, forms of validity
• Scientifics – Understand theoretically the rules of propositional calculus and the rules of syllogistic
• Operational – Perform propositional calculus; build well-formed syllogisms; identify fallacious arguments; clarify the logical structure of sentences of natural language
• Cross outcomes - undertake logic discussion of arguments, developing argumentative consistency
