About Great Books Foundation

The Great Books Foundation helps create a world of readers and thinkers of all ages. * We create reading and discussion programs for students and adults in the conviction that literacy and critical thinking help people of all ages become more knowledgeable, reflective, and engaged citizens. * We teach preK–12 students in Great Books programs how to think critically—sparking a passion for literature and ideas through the discussion of fiction, poetry, drama, and nonfiction. * We provide instruction for teachers, parents, and adult volunteers in Shared Inquiry™, a method of teaching and learning developed by Great Books that promotes close reading, careful questioning, active listening, and the respectful exchange of ideas. * We create partnerships with educational and community organizations to advance reading and discussion as a means for exploring shared concerns and common ground.
