Wait so one DOES need watch the video and do the reading? Asking because I just did the reading, grasped the concept and then in the next section I'm seeing terms like minor premise being used and I would't have come across that term and understanding without going back to this section and watching the video? Very confusing and now I'm not sure how to proceed even when the write makes sense. I thought video and write ups were the same thing but now it seems like like more info can be shared in the video then just the write up :/

@Kevin Lin I wonder if this P and C Skill builder section would flow better in the Arguments curriculum if we did them directly after the lessons where we learned about the components of an arguments - defining Premise and Conclusion. At some point after the first P and C lesson, we jumped into learning about what components of an argument help assess it's validity and strength plus their relationship to "assumptions" (presence, frequency and degree of reasonability). Only to have that lesson lead back to learning about the 3 ways to identify a stim's premise and conclusion. Leading to this practice section asking us to Label P and Cs.

All this to say that I can see why some people are confusing needing to focus on only labeling the P and C here and are conflating it with aspects of assessing the argument itself. Maybe the objective of this section would come across more clearly if the part in bold was discussed after this skill builder section. It was clear for me but just thought.
