Synopsis

The use of images is a pedagogical strategy aimed at engaging students who have grown up in a media-rich environment. Images make concepts enjoyable, memorable and accelerate understanding. Images To Learn, is a book series using mostly images to teach different concepts for kids. There are countless studies that have confirmed the power of visual imagery in learning. The research outcomes on visual learning make total sense when you consider that our brain is mainly an image processor. Logical fallacies are errors in reasoning or false assumptions that might sound impressive but prove absolutely nothing. Although you may not realize it immediately, there are arguments all around us vying for our attention and acceptance, they are trying to get you to believe their conclusions, therefore you have to be able to evaluate those arguments and avoid being influenced by others. Studying fallacies is an important part of logic and one that can immediately enrich your life, one of the most immediate and obvious benefit from such a study is that it can allow you to improve the quality of the arguments you use, which will also hopefully be an ability to communicate more clearly and effectively.Knowing the fallacies is a mark of a well educated mind and it greatly enriches the quality of thinking and education.
