How To Read A Book (An Intro to Liberal Learning) v1.2
***First Year Teacher Edition*** In this, the second of a two part series, we cover the Trivium Skills: Reading For Understanding Taking Notes Coming To Terms The Paraphrase Finding The Argument Mental Concentration Memory Playing clips from Mortimer Adler's dvd version of How To Read A Book, as well as a short excerpt from Rev. Edmund Opitz' talk, The Liberating Arts, I outline for the audience a few essential skills that are required in order to obtain the most from a Trivium-based education. As the Trivium deals with the substance and structure of thought and language, it can be said to be a universal education, relevant to all human beings regardless of time and place. This is a way to increase your intelligence. Part 1 covers the introductory information on the Trivium Subjects and Method, while Part 2 covers the Trivium Skills.
