The ever-industrious folks at ARG:Dundee (the group behind the popular argument diagramming software Araucaria) have a lovely new tool for keeping track of and participating in argumentation on the “blogosphere”. They call it “argublogging“. I think it’s an impressive extension of the work they’ve done on the Argument Interchcange Format, or AIF. The video below [...]
David McCandless Fallacies Infographic
Posted in Discussion, Fallacies, tagged Argumentation, David McCandless, fallacies, infographics, Informal Logic, Rhetoric on April 5, 2012 | 1 Comment »
Readers of RAIL might remember this chestnut from two years ago on infographics and visual argument. That post featured a TED talk by David McCandless. Though I’m tempted, I’ll refuse to commit the post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy here and simply report that McCandless’s website, Information is Beautiful, now features a very nice-looking infographic [...]
