Week 10 Session: Tutorial 10: philosophy checkpoint

Week 10's tutorial — the fifth graded checkpoint, pairing a fake-deep paragraph against a real argument as in lecture

26 April 2027

Bring the paragraph that survived week 9’s clinic, now paired against something a real philosopher actually argued. This is where the comparison from lecture gets run for a mark instead of an audience.

In the session#

• short pairings read side by side, no commentary first
• the room votes on whether the pairing holds up or quietly falls apart
• notes on what “it’s satire” is doing when it’s used as a defence here

Afterwards#

Same split as always: half for showing up, half for whether the pairing was made honestly rather than rigged to flatter itself.
