“A Great Books discussion encourages students to form<br />
opinions, but then requires them to justify <strong>and</strong> exp<strong>and</strong><br />
their point of view. At the same time, they’re learning<br />
that other people’s opinions are worth hearing, <strong>and</strong> that<br />
what they learn by listening <strong>and</strong> delving deeper into a text<br />
challenges their thinking <strong>and</strong> helps them develop initial<br />
responses into sophisticated theories.”<br />
