Predicate Logic
Cursusdoel
After completing this course students are able to:
Assignments (45% + 45%): a regularly updated portfolio of the work done submitted a two points in the course (week 12 and week 15); this tests the ability to apply a symbolic and formal logical analysis to complex aspects of language and argumentation including quantifiers and predicates (goal 1) to argue on the deductive validity of arguments by using the truth-tree method (goal 2) to argue on the logical equivalence of complex statements (goal 3) to argue on whether logical statements are tautologies, contingencies or contradictions (goal 4)
Participation (10%)
- Apply a symbolic and formal logical analysis to complex aspects of language and argumentation, including quantifiers and predicates
- Argue on the deductive validity of arguments by using the truth-tree method
- Argue on the logical equivalence of complex statements
- Argue on whether logical statements are tautologies, contingencies or contradictions

Vakinhoudelijk
Predicate Logic is primarily intended for humanities students with an interest in philosophy and linguistics. The module will also be relevant for social science students following law tracks and some more mathematically oriented students.
In the Logic II module, students will be introduced to the symbolism and formalization of more complex aspects of language and argumentation, in particular, predicate logic. The topics discussed in the course include quantifier scope, negation, anaphora, and identity. Students will also be introduced informally to the concepts of coherence and completeness of a deductive system and to some of the principal paradoxes of deductive logic.
Format
The format of the course will largely be based on the concept of “learning by doing”. Students have to prepare for classes by reading selected materials and completing individual assignments which will be discussed in class. The assignments will be part of a portfolio that the student has to hand in at the end of the course.
Schedule
This course is taught during the last five weeks of the semester. It uses the same timeslot as the UCACCMET25 group did during the first ten weeks.
Registration:
During the UCACCMET25 course, students will be asked for their preferences in follow-up module and registered in the week before it starts.
Any student who still needs/wants a module without being registered for UCACCMET25 at that moment, can sign up through ucu.curriculum@uu.nl (cc tutor). These other students will be lotteried into any remaining places, so also need to list a backup module.
