Local Classes for World Views of the Western World

Printer-Friendly Format


  
Michael Farris, founder of Home School Legal Defense Association and the National Center for Home Education, and the President of Patrick Henry College, has endorsed "World Views of the Western World"

"One of the best programs I have seen that offers a clearly Christian classical education is David Quine's World Views of the Western World, published by the Cornerstone Curriculum Project…World Views is a three-year program that is built largely around the works of Francis Schaeffer. Students still read Homer, Socrates, and Machiavelli. But these are balanced not only by Schaeffer's works, but also by St. Augustine, Luther, and Calvin. Cornerstone's World Views is in its first edition and has many good features in place that make it quite usable for most home schooling mothers who don't have the time to sit and read classical literature for fifteen to twenty hours a week.

Quine also employs a number of videos that are great teaching tools for making history and literature come alive -- the movie Gettysburg, for example, plus presentations by Schaeffer.

World Views is academically challenging, Christian-based, and provides a good exposure to classical literature, history, art, and music. It is superior to almost all high schools, as well as to the liberal arts components offered in most colleges and universities."
