November 6 - "Learning Skills 101: Learning How to Learn"

Join us at 7:30 tonight when Professor Samples will continue his Academy series "Learning Skills 101: Learning How to Learn.  Tonight Ken will be lecturing on Intelligent Reading 5 / Intro to Logic 1.  As always there will be time for question and answers following the lecture. 

The motto for the United Negro College Fund sends chills up my spine whenever I hear it. Its foreboding yet challenging message declares: “A mind is a terrible thing to waste.”  For the Christian, however, the stakes are even higher. A human mind made in the image and likeness of an infinite, eternal, and personal God (Gen. 1:26-27) is a fortiori (Latin: “with greater force,” “all the more”) a terrible thing to waste.

The Study Skills 101: Learning How To Learn class is specifically offered to help believers sharpen their thinking, reading, and speaking skills. This course can be directly helpful to teachers, parents (especially homeschool parents), and students, particularly adult students who want to engage in a lifelong journey of intellectual discovery and learning. This class can serve as a fun and challenging opportunity to clear the mental cobwebs that too often accumulate with the passage of time and age. All educational levels can benefit from the content of this class. Come and learn the enduring insights of famed philosopher and educator Mortimer J. Adler by studying his best selling work How to Read a Book.  -- Professor Kenneth Samples  

Textbooks: How to Read a Book by Mortimer J. Adler and Charles Van Doren and A World of Difference

Instructor:  Professor Kenneth Samples, Senior Scholar of Apologetics at Reasons To Believe, Adult Education Instructor at Christ Reformed Church
