Which Logic to use?

[marisajatkins]

If you had only one hour (or less) per week to work with a high school co-op class for one semester, which logic curriculum would you choose? Any curriculum too heavy for this time frame?

We've done a lot of logic, as my ds enjoys it. The Fallacy Detective is excellent for informal logic. And I think the Introductory Logic by James Nance is the best Formal Logic book. These are both the lightest I have found.

 

Memoria Press logic was too heavy and dry. Peter Kreeft's Logic: confusing.

Note that The Fallacy Detective uses a basic assumption that a Christian worldview equals fact/truth.  This may be what you are looking for but if not, it wouldn't work at all.

Even some Christians don't consider The Fallacy Detective and other books by the same author logic (informal or formal) at all.  Be aware of this if you're considering using it in a group setting, you could have some very unhappy parents.

Thank you very much. Time is an issue, and so is the world view. I personally like to incorporate different world views, but the parents may not. Thank you for the responses.
