How to Tell What is True
In an era of disinformation and censorship in our public discourse, how are students to discern what is true?
In order to prepare children to confront this world today, one of the most important things we can do is give them a firm grasp of logical thinking skills. It is the ability to reason correctly that anchors a person’s thinking and gives them the ability to determine what is legitimate and what is untrue. Logic has its grounding in language and is the skill of critical and correct thinking and conceptual development. It is the art and science of reasoning well.
At Trinity Classical Academy, logic is taught throughout all grade levels and formal logic is taught in 8th grade. Proper use of reason allows us not only to form rational statements but to also understand the statements of others. Logical fallacies are everywhere in our world. We study logical fallacies (bad arguments resulting from common mistakes in logic) in order to critically reason through the arguments of others and discern what is true and right. Logic equips us to understand our beliefs and give a proper defense of what we believe.
Students who are trained to think critically and logically will recognize the fallacies of others as well as their own. Logic saves us from merely regurgitating information and gives one the freedom to think for ourselves.
