Welcome Boston Globe Readers!

April 6, 2020 By DegreeofFreedom in Filed Under: Uncategorized

For those who saw the Sunday Globe announcement of tomorrow’s MIT Press webinar for the launch of Critical Thinking Essentials, you can still register for the event here (it takes place Tuesday, April 7, from 12:30-1:30).

In other book news, MIT has chosen Critical Thinking as the 50th title in their fabulous Essentials series, and honor and a responsibility to help fulfill the mission of Essentials to make complex subjects (including ones we may need to survive – such as how to think critically) accessible to all.

While this and last month’s tumult pushed him back a week, my son Ben will be joining the blog this Friday to begin his journey learning to become a critical thinker which all readers are welcome to join.

Meanwhile, if you’re a teacher (or know a teacher) who needs support moving to remote learning, please share these resources with him or her.

Hope you can join us tomorrow!
