Abstract

The program for Analytical Thinking at Texas Wesleyan College has added a new dimension this year with the introduction of Suki, another philosophical novel by Dr. Matthew Lipman and the sequel to Harry Stottlemeier's Discovery, at William James School, a Middle School in the Fort Worth Independent School District. Several of the thirty-four sixth graders in Mrs. Hazel Robinson's English class at William James will bring to their discussion of Suki a year of analytical thinking experience with Dr. Ron Reed and Harry Stottlemeier's Discovery. Those students who have not had that year of experience with the Program should find very helpful the early sessions of the class which will be devoted to a review of important thinking exercises in Harry Stottlemeier's Discovery.
