It covers the material presented for the week. The quizzes included are perforated pages so I can tear out and hand my son just the page for that week. Doing one per day, he can work through one chapter a week. There are 4 sets of exercises in each chapter and then a short set of review exercises. We use our player that is hooked up to the television so even though Gabe is the student, I am able to listen and observe as well, and it is not uncommon for his siblings to be in the same room, soaking up a little bit of logic as well! (You could view this on any computer or dvd player, and use headphones if needed.)Īfter the video lesson, Gabe reads the chapter in the text that matches that week’s lesson. We begin each chapter on the first day of the week with the video lesson from the Instructional dvd. Martin Cothran (the author) tells us in the introduction of the text that ‘ traditional logic is a study of the classical syllogism, where as modern logic is the study, primarily, of the calculus of propositions.’ Each complete set includes a Student Text, Student Workbook, Quizzes and Tests, Teacher Key and Instructional DVDs.

The study of formal logic was a common course of study way back to the middle ages, and even back to the time of Aristotle. This is a course in traditional formal logic. My 10th grade son was willing to give this course a try, and so we are! Because I know a Classical Christian Education lays an excellent academic foundation, I was happy to get the chance to review Traditional Logic I Complete Set along with Traditional Logic II Complete Set from Memoria Press.
