We are happy to share that Don Rhymer will be joining us again this year. His session Critical Thinking and Narration will happen during Session C in place of folk dancing. Don’t worry! You may still attend folk dancing during Session H.
Critical Thinking and Narration
A former Harvard University President once claimed that critical thinking is the “most important purpose of undergraduate education.” Research also suggests its importance to employers and graduate schools as well. This session will survey various definitions of critical thinking, review a set of proficiencies for the critical thinking outcome at the Air Force Academy, and explore how narration can develop such proficiencies with a CM education, founded upon the mind being “‘thoroughly furnished’ with ideas that, of its own accord, it compares and examines critically.” (Charlotte Mason, Formation of Character)
