CRITICAL THINKING

    In  this series you will begin the rearrangement of your thinking process.  You will learn how to critique your thinking while you are thinking in order to make your thinking more orderly and fact-based.  The final rule for validation of the facts accepted in your thinking is the King James Bible.

Required courses:  These courses are required for all students.

• Submission of Journal:
   - You will be required to submit an updated copy of your Journal at the end of each course in order to receive credit for the course.
  - You must use and submit a different Journal for each of the courses in the series.  Each course has its own format for the Journal.
  The main portion of the course:  The main portion of this class is not the textbook study.  The main portion is your daily practice as you develop and utilize your Critical Thinking skills and record your progress in your Journal.  The main work is rearranging your thinking so that it will function in an organized and, hopefully, comprehensive fashion as you progress day by day, week by week, through the course.  It is the aim of this first course to help you develop the habit of constantly critiquing your thinking at all times and in all matters.  To facilitate this, the Journal will be used as a daily assessment guide as well as a means of accountability.  You will turn in an updated copy at the end of each course.
