Thank you for your thoughtful input into this weeks discussion about distinguishing inductive and deductive reasoning! You provided thoughtful examples and analyses of inductive and deductive reasoning. Good job! Here is an exercise to complete (be sure to review the The Structure of the Reasoning section in Chapter 8). Using F and G to stand for classes of objects, please describe the reasoning pattern of the valid argument template called Applying a Generalization. Please provide an example, either your own or from elsewhere.
