This chapter introduces several modules that can be used to supplement an introductory logic course. The modules cover advanced topics such as rule heuristics, association rules, polythetic vs. monothetic grouping, and subsective adjectives. These topics are all approached using ordinary propositional logic, Boolean algebra with 0-1 variables. The topics are presented using a computational approach. The computations and concepts are elementary and accessible to an undergraduate without further prerequisites. The modules besides introducing advanced topics also facilitate discussion of other logic topics such as the law of the excluded middle, the concept of vagueness, and privative adjectives. This chapter presents new solutions to these problems. The chapter reviews the place of these modules within the context of introductory logic courses and the history of science. The supplementation of an introductory logic course with these modules is expected to strongly motivate students to pursue advanced topics and to increase interest in topics related to logic.

AbstractSpeech therapy can be viewed as a business in logopaedic area that aims to offer services for correcting language. A proper treatment of speech impairments ensures improved efficiency of therapy, so, in order to do that, a therapist must continuously learn how to adjust its therapy methods to patient's characteristics. Using Information and Communication Technology in this area allowed collecting a lot of data regarding various aspects of treatment. These data can be used for a data mining process in order to find useful and usable patterns and models which help therapists to improve its specific education. Clustering, classification or association rules can provide unexpected information which help to complete therapist's knowledge and to adapt the therapy to patient's needs.
