Looking at the cost of informal logic / critical thinking textbooks for my students next spring and it’s absurd how expensive they’ve become. A big part of that is they all want to integrate with an LMS. But seriously, $150 for a textbook they won’t likely keep, or a similarly high price for one they will rent is ridiculous.

Thinking I will simply write my own text (I’ve been teaching logic for 25 years now, have loads of notes and references) using AI to clean it up for LMS integration.

Cost to my students: zero.

Benefit: combination of long experience and current topics and examples.
