How to Learn the Art of Reasoning

from Mr. Michael's Walk Talks · host William C. Michael

Modern schools talk about "critical thinking" and "public speaking" as if the ideas have never been considered before.  Fake "classical" schools pretend that "Logic" and "Rhetoric" classes designed for the modern school calendar give children what they need to think and communicate effectively.  Behind all this, the REAL arts of Reasoning and Rhetoric stand, largely untouched by modern students.   In this talk, Mr. Michael discusses the real art of Reasoning and how interested students can learn it, studying Aristotle's "Organon" in the Classical Liberal Arts Academy. +++ For more information about classical Catholic education, and access to over 100 free online courses, visit https://classicalliberalarts.com. +++ Mr. William C. Michael is the founding headmaster of the Classical Liberal Arts Academy.  He graduated from Rutgers University with an honors degree in Classics & Ancient History and is a member of Phi Beta Kappa.  Mr. Michael has worked in private education as a Classics teacher and administrator for over 20 years.  He is a Roman Catholic homeschooling father of ten children, and keeper of a quiet family farm in North Carolina.
