2). Sometimes when something is difficult to understand, it becomes a bit clearer when we try to explain it to someone else. Which type of reasoning was most difficult to understand? Please do some additional internet research on that specific type of reasoning and discuss what you learned.
I think the reasoning by criteria was the hardest because although there were examples of what to do for an example of my own of the reasoning by criteria there was no specific clarification on which type of example would be best for this reasoning. I think the sign reasoning was the most helpful and the easiest one to understand. I also really liked the website that was used for explaining the sign reasoning, because it also really helped me on understanding the other types of reasoning and lead me to make better examples of each type of reasoning. The other websites that were mentioned were not as straight forward and although there were not that great of examples from the website for the sign reasoning, the very simple examples that were mentioned allowed me to be able to come up with more complex examples on my own. I also kind of had a little trouble on the reasoning by analogy, but once I referred back to the actual book, I was able to understand the definition and how to make an example much more clearly.
I liked how one of our blogs was to explain something we did not understand well because the homework serves as a study tool to understand it better. I also thought the sign reasoning was one of the most easy to understand because it is very simple and literal. Reasoning by analogy was one of the reasonings I had trouble with. I also had to refer to the book and look at examples online to understand it. If you would like you could refer to my blog for my explanation of it. I always refer to other classmates blog to understand the material better.
