Learner Reviews & Feedback for Think Again I: How to Understand Arguments by Duke University

Great course; highly informative. Good teaching that makes the subject easy to understand.

This is a good course if you want to learn how to break down arguments or just the words people use. It made me learn and it was well worth it. Thank you

it helped me understand argument and analyse it for better understanding

I took it a while back before it was divided and did not pass, so now Im happy that it is divided, 1) to see if I understand better this time 2) to show that i did learn something.

This course was exactly what I was looking for - an easy to follow journey through the fundamentals of understanding, evaluating, and constructing arguments. I was surprised how much of what was taught I was already doing intuitively, but having the mechanics explained explicitly has really helped me refine my abilities. Dr Walter Sinnott-Armstrong's light-hearted approach to what could potentially be a very dry subject was also very helpful and very welcome. Congratulations to Dr Sinnott-Armstrong and the team at Duke University for putting together such a great course - I really appreciate it.

Excellent delivery; entertaining, concise, clear and well structured. Very useful information.

It's a really well designed and organized course to understand reasoning.

It changed my thinking and behavior totally. It's a must learn for everyone from my side to the one who seeks knowledge.

Tecnical and fun. Loved it.

it's very good.

Excellent course on resources to understand and evaluate arguments.

Excellent course!!!! Great explanations!

I loved it!

Very well structured course. Learn a lot. Just last week (reconstruction examples) are a bit confusing and hard to follow.

Not to dominate the language was a little confusing to understand the subjects, as they are guarding and standard term, for that reason the test I realized them to understand better the subjects, since it has been very useful for me that many points had the written answer. I am aware that I must review each lesson. Obviously has been much knowledge captured, I now have more bases and clarity to be more assertive in understanding what comes to me and what I transmit. Thanks very much teacher Waltter Sinnott

Although I had some background "noise" that made this course challenging, it was a good learning experience! The professors made it interesting.

After completing this course, knowingly or unknowingly, I started observing markers while reading and even while listening to someone speak. I feel, I still need to sharpen my edges. Hope more practice will help. Overall I am happy, I did this course. I thank IIS for recommending this course to me.

this is a very important course to take first to understand others argument so you have understanding of the people which get you closer to others as well as formulating your own argument for the different reasons you might have to give an argument
