➢ Represent information in symbolic forms, notably the formal languages of categorical, propositional, and predicate logic.
➢ Interpret and evaluate formalized arguments by means of formal semantic and deductive models, notably, Venn diagrams, truth tables, and formal
deductive systems.
➢ Calculate complex probabilities on the basis of the eight mathematical axioms of probability calculus and Bayes’ Theorem.
➢ Identify and evaluate assumptions in both inductive and deductive reasoning as they appear in our daily experience.
➢ Express an understanding of the fundamental concepts of deductive (categorical, propositional, and predicate) logic, inductive logic, and
probability theory, including: formal language, Boolean operator, quantification, class, argument, validity, proof, probability, probability calculus, and
Bayes’ Theorem.
