This year A.C.E.S. will do a study on Critical Thinking. It has been on my mind since Leon started to college and complained about how much he was missing in this area. He reads and thinks well but we have done no formal lessons. So in keeping with our Moms Survival Guide motto of Always Thinking about Thinking, we will launch into informal Formal Studies of Critical Thinking, Argumentation, etc.

This study path was initiated when I received a sale catalog for TheGreatCourses.com. I did a search for reviews and for each of the professors teaching the classes I was interested in purchasing. I did a search for reviews of The Great Courses, formally known as The Teaching Company, and followed several of the links. I also did a search for several of the names of the teachers of the videos I am interested in purchasing. That led to watching a really good video on YouTube by a professor at Fayettville State University.

Here is a link to both:
