Abstract

Since September of 1979, Texas Wesleyan College's School of Education has been running a program called "Analytic Thinking for Children". The program is based on one developed by Matthew Lipman of the Institute For The Advancement of Philosophy for Children. Both Lipman's Philosophy for Children program and Wesleyan's program use the tools of philosophy and logic in an attempt to improve children's thinking, increase their interest in things academic and improve their scores on standardized tests - specifically, improve their scores on the reading an mathematics sections of standardized tests.
