The Theseus Learning System is an exciting new way to develop higher-order thinking skills. Firmly rooted in the disciplines of logic and rhetoric, Theseus is an excellent way to enrich a classical homeschool education. Instead of emphasizing facts and trusting that thinking skills will somehow develop (studies indicate that this indirect approach rarely works), TLS is designed from the ground up to directly strengthen essential habits of mind.

It works like this. The colorful, activity-filled Lesson Book shows how to break down complex thinking tasks into simple, familiar steps. Meanwhile, your Theseus software helps you visualize logical relationships and ask the right questions, so you can build compelling lines of thought quickly and easily. The visual reinforcement helps you see arguments the way skilled thinkers do, so critical thinking skills develop MUCH more rapidly.

The visual approach to thinking instruction has been shown to dramatically improve reasoning skills. One study demonstrated that an entire college education's worth of critical thinking skills can be acquired in just a few short months! (van Gelder, 2001) TLS is the first complete learning package that builds on this exciting finding.

TLS is easy to integrate into the rest of your curriculum, too. Let it turn your existing course material into a stimulating mental workout!
