Pre-Reading Blog #4

While there have been several interesting chapters by Susan Jacoby, I have to say that the last assigned chapter was not very compelling to the writing process. I had a very hard time forming an opinion or even gaining any insight from the last reading. I am really hoping that these next two chapters will be more thought provoking than the last one. And since this is a "pre-reading" post, I haven't read the chapters any more than the titles of them. I am curious to see where these next two chapters will take us and end the semester. I hope I don't offend anyone, but I am slightly disappointed with the reading selection from this class. While some of the reading has been invigorating, overall I was left hoping for more. I like to have a variety to develop the critical thinking process. If we only base our critical thinking process off of a single author, doesn't that limit our to ability to broaden our skills? Then again I am having a hard time writing this without any real direction. As I am writing, I keep asking myself why I am writing this. I know it is an assignment, but it still has little direction without the prompt. Sorry if this is a little short, but I really don't know what else to say. Enjoy the reading and good luck with the rest of the semester!!
