Annotating “Critical Thinking and the Liberal Arts” by Jeffery Scheuer

Pre-read: After reading the title of this article I can assume this article is about some sort of schooling. I don’t know exactly what Liberal Arts are but I know they are commonly discussed in the college setting. I think Liberal Arts is typically a major for people who aren’t sure what they want for their major.

Unfortunately I can’t insert an image of my annotations for some reason. Instead, I will type out four of them:

“Why is it surprising that a student would want a degree that gets them a job, isn’t that the point?”

“Now they are explaining Liberal Arts, the beginning of the article was written to grab the readers attention and now he is explaining what it is.”

“Liberal typically means, step back and have a free thinking mind”

“Based on this page I’m understanding that Liberal Arts are a way of learning about multiple topics through connections of thinking at a higher level”
