Preparing for College Humanities Seminars
One of the best things about the college academic experience is also the most challenging: how much it differs from a typical high school class. Especially in humanities seminars, students must go beyond reading comprehension and into active engagement with all kinds of texts, to look at them from a variety of perspectives, and then be able to find and synthesize evidence for a particular point of view. This course will prepare students for these courses and give an early introduction to this exciting new way of thinking and discussing ideas!
