When I went to junior college back in the late 90s/early 2000s, we had to take a Logic course. It was awesome and I wish more schools would have that on their curriculum. Aligning with the theme of this post, while it was easy for some, many struggled to pass that class.
Agree. I took intro to logic along with discrete math for my comp sci degree. These classes were the best. I especially liked the intro to logic where we would diagram syllogisms and fallacies. It got complicated, but made me think! Schools don’t teach people to think, but instead teach people to regurgitate knowledge whether it is true or false.
