READING 4.5
Reading 4.5 title crooked and fallacious thinking was presented by mastika and Syuhada. Crooked means not in a straight line however fallacious means wrong. Both chapters discussing about crooked and fallacious thinking which is not only evidence of illogical mental but processes and poor communications still but it also manipulative tool in the hands of speaker/ writers wishing to influence and effect the judgment of their listeners or readers. This text also focuses to persuade someone toward a particular belief or course of action. As a result, this text is included in course on critical literacy as it is important to be able to identify the logic content in the argument in the text. The presentation was doing well but the presenter cannot gives example based on their opinion. However, they are able to give explanation. Furthermore, the presenter did not put element critical literacy in their presentation.
