We worked on the assigned problems for Jared's homework of last night on permutations and combinations. We had covered this topic in the fall, so it was primarily a review. Jared very quickly picked up on the factorial, and completed the problems swiftly once he got going. Jared had already had a rather intense Algebra class, and had tackled the homework problems with gusto, so in view of Jared's recently expressed interest in law, to finish today's class we discussed logical fallacies and how they are (inadvertently, much of the time) introduced into arguments to favor a specific scenario, and how difficult they are to spot. This is very important in cases when medical research, for example, uses hard-fact statistics to support a study and non-scientifically-minded (often) opponents of that study counter the results using arguments that hold no logical water, but go uncontested because of a failure to spot the logical fallacies involved.
