What is the fallacy of Straw Man? How is it different than simply disagreeing with someone else\u2019s point of view?<\/p>\n

Use the material in Vaughn’s book to help you give a detailed explanation of what the mistake in a Straw Man is. To demonstrate your understanding and to teach the idea to the rest of the class, provide a <\/span>relevant real-life example <\/span><\/strong>of the logical mistake. (You MAY use an outside source to help you present your example; be sure to summarize or paraphrase, cite, and use announcing verbs.) Choose carefully – consider whether your example does a good job of illustrating a Straw Man. Contrast it to other fallacies, and show why your example is a Straw Man. The discussion of your example should be detailed so that readers can evaluate the fallacy. Argue the case for why your example is, indeed, an example of Straw Man rather than another fallacy.<\/p>\n

be sure to cite your source.  If you use a quotation or an example from a website, cite the website’s URL and the date accessed.<\/span><\/p>\n
