A logic course for all ages, but designed for use as young as 7th grade, Traditional Logic is an in-depth study of the classical syllogism. Along with a basic understanding of the Christian theory of knowledge, the text presents the four kinds of logical statements, the four ways propositions can be opposed, the three ways in which they can be equivalent, and the seven rules for the validity of syllogisms. This comprehensive but easy to use course can be used as either a one-semester or one-year course.

Too Many Errors,
By
This review is from: Traditional Logic I, Text (Paperback)
I am a homeschool mother. I have used both Traditional Logic I and II with my teenage daughter. I do not recommend these books for the parent who has never studied logic, especially as you proceed into the advanced book. The answer key has so many errors and typos. (Whole pages are missing.) that it is impossible to guide the child. It is also impossible to do this course without the DVD, even then Mr. Cothran does not shed much light on the subject in terms of practical application. I pray Mr. Cothran comes out with a second edition to clean up his errors.

AWESOME!,
This review is from: Traditional Logic I, Text (Paperback)
This was one of my favorite subject's my dd took this year. It's a complete program, has great follow questions at the end of each section and rather interesting case studies to test the user's understanding of that chapters information. While the case studies are all religiously based, that one uses the syllogisms to prove or disprove, the information presented in the chapters is religiously neutral. We did not need the answer key for this book.
My dd took a class at a local homeschooling co-op that did use the DVD series, but she said she hated the professor's speaking- she counted that he said "um" 16 times in one section once and had long pauses. You can't use just the DVD series to teach the material, but it is my understanding that you can use just the text. This material is useful for students 7th grade and older.

This review is from: Traditional Logic I, Text (Paperback)
This is a good Logic text. It's the real deal, not fluff. You should read this with your students and see if your education was lacking!
