UQx Denial101x Interview with Peter Ellerton
Channel: UQx Denial101x Making Sense of Climate Science Denial
Date: 15/09/2016

Peter Ellerton, University of Queensland Director of the Critical Thinking Project, introduces us to critical thinking in argumentation. He explains what it means for an argument to be "valid" or "sound," how values can form an essential part of a logical argument, and describes some logical fallacies as they apply to deductive and inductive reasoning.
