Lynn Madeiros
I extremely enjoyed the lecture given by Lynn Madeiros on Matter of Fact vs. Matters of Value. I was highly surprised that I really had to think critically when it came to most of the questions. She really makes you think twice before you start an argument! I now understand what the difference between the two is and how to approach an argument. You take a position on a certain subject and support it with facts. One must fully understand both sides of an argument to be able to truly know their position. I honestly have always thought that an opinion was basis enough for an argument but is now sadly set straight. Some of the arguments that I look back on were completely irrelevant. I have learned so much just in that one lecture and will happy use it when I find myself in an argument. I hope that I get the chance to take one her classes because I believe that it would be a very interesting and insightful class.
