週あたり 1-2 時間. Students are evaluated on mastery of learning goals as evidenced by preparation for class and verbal contributions to discussion and debate during class. Students will have the opportunity to contribute at least once during class. Parents will receive monthly feedback, more frequent if necessary, to encourage participation. Verbal participation is required and will be highly supported by facilitator, as needed, until students are comfortable with expressing their ideas with more independence.修了証書

In this club, we will read the works of Thomas Sowell beginning with "Basic Economics: A Common Sense Guide to the Economy." Learners will be assigned a specific chapter reading and questions to prepare for each class along with a suggested number of pages to read each day. Weekly class meetings will provide an opportunity for students to discuss and debate the readings. Classes will be student centered with teacher facilitation. We will cover one chapter per week. There are no equations or complicated charts. Each week I will post a suggested number of pages to read each day to prepare for the next meeting.

My nature is to question everything. I consider it an imperative to pursue a path of independent learning in many subject areas, keep up with current events, and use life experiences to establish my own world view. It is an ongoing process, as it should be. I hope to instill or reinforce this imperative with my students.
