MamaSprout Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Am I overlooking some reviews somewhere? I'm trying to put together a speech-and-logic semester long class that I don't have to write from the ground up. All high schoolers. Some have had a speech before, and some have had some logic (I have time to assign some pre-reading for those who haven't). Would this work? Rhetoric Alive I'm striking out with inter-library loan or cheap used copies so I can take a closer look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saddlemomma Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Bumping because I am also looking at this for the future... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy M Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think it's new. CAP just put out an amazing article by the author in their newsletter about this program. It truly sounds amazing. I really want to do it for my kids when they get older, but my hesitation is that we wouldn't have a class. If you have a class situation, this sounds ideal for that! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaSprout Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 I did email them, and yes, it is a newer program. The "prerequisites" are some introduction to informal logic, but formal logic is covered from the beginning. Writing levels need to be solid, but can develop over the course. I do plan to use this with a small group, so I haven't looked to adapt it to a one-on-one situation. Looking at the samples, though, if you can find a friend, it might work with two students.
