Reasoning
By: Matthew Allen
Reasoning is the basis of much of our thinking. It is often described simply as the process of thinking through and communicating our reasons for holding certain views or conclusions. Reasoning is a process of understanding and exploring the relationships between the many events, objects, and ideas in our world. An item can only be understood in relation to other ones. Reasoning enables us to get beyond a world of innumerable separate events, objects, and ideas. Using reasoning, we see that all these separate items are interconnected, and what we know about any particular object depends on our knowledge of other objects. Reasoning does not come naturally but must be learnt and improved.
Reasoning as a form of communication, are:
1. arguing
2. explaining
3. making decisions
4. predicting the future
4. exploring issues
5. finding answers
6. justifying actions
