• Logical Fallacies: How Good-Looking Arguments Go Wrong – A fallacy is an error in reasoning that makes an argument weak or invalid, even though it may look convincing. Formal fallacies are mistakes in the form (structure) of a deductive argument, such as affirming the consequent. Informal fallacies are mistakes in content, language or relevance, such as ad hominem, straw man, false dilemma, slippery slope, appeal to popularity or false authority, hasty generalisation, post hoc and circular reasoning. Spotting them helps us discuss fairly.

Classics in study and work

• Career Planning: From Knowing Yourself to Your First Job – Career planning has five steps. 1) Know yourself: interests, skills and values. 2) Explore career families and find out the work, study needed, pay and demand. 3) Plan a pathway with SMART goals and a plan B. 4) Search for jobs with a CV, cover letter, digital portfolio and interview practice. 5) Make the move from school to work and keep learning, because careers change over a lifetime.
