Schedule
and Due Dates
Deductive Logic

Spring 2010
Tentative Reading Schedule
We will be covering (the non-optional
sections of) chapters
1-13 of Language,
Proof and Logic. In
general, we will be reading about a chapter a week. However, I suspect
that some chapters will take longer than others, especially as the
material gets more difficult. I will alert everyone if the reading
schedule should change from what is posted below. I will post the
assignments here. Your first assignment is posted below, as well as the
tentative reading schedule:
2/8: Your first assignment will be to familiarize yourself with the
text and the
software. Please read the Introduction, pages 1-10 and complete the
"You Try It" exercise on pp. 8-10. This will walk you through how
to register your personal information, email, registration ID number,
and will give you a test submission as practice for future
Problem Set submissions. If you have any questions, please contact one

(blussier@oberlin.edu). Please have this completed by Wednesday,
