Type: Informational Material

Overview:

This informational material will introduce students to logic statements containing and and or, the symbols to represent the logical connectives, and truth tables. There is a corresponding video available. Practice questions with a PDF answer key are provided. In addition, there is a self-checking online practice tool.
