Raising Critically Thinking Individuals.

Education is not only about acquiring knowledge and skills in various fields, but also about understanding how and why we believe in what we read or see. In an age when social media bombards us with a torrent of facts and opinions, parents and teachers are concerned about how the younger generation will interpret the information received. Amid the endless information noise, thoughtful and meticulous analysis of different viewpoints plays a key role. But how can we instill such an important skill?
Drawing on more than twenty years of experience in homeschooling her children, Julie Bogart offers practical tools that will help the child develop skills to explore the world around them at every stage of growth, understand how attachments or biases influence worldview, and generate fresh ideas rather than merely recycling what they have been taught. This book contains numerous real stories and accessible exercises that contribute to raising individuals with a deep mind and a caring heart.
