BJU CURRICULUM HIGHLIGHTS:

BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW

BJU Press curriculum is truly written from a Biblical worldview in all subject matters. If critical thinking is evaluative thinking, then there must be a clear standard for the evaluative process. Critical thinking goes beyond merely knowing the truth; it is the ability to apply the truth, to analyze meaning, to synthesize conclusion, to create in a manner consistent to truth and to evaluate ideas according to the standard of truth.

MULTI-SENSORY

The curriculum utilizes a multi-sensory approach to learning. A multi-sensory approach to learning is simply using as many of the "senses" as possible in teaching the material to be learned.

BALANCED APPROACH

BJU emphasizes a balanced approach to learning. A balanced-approach to learning does not sacrifice the learning of some skills in order to spend more time drilling a student over and over again in just a few important skills. For example, drilling phonics with no comprehension teaching or drilling math facts with no real understanding of the concepts.

TEACHER OVER TEXTBOOKS

BJU highlights the teacher over textbooks. Because the curriculum is not "Textbook-driven", the teacher is encouraged to use their expertise and creativity in the classroom.

CONCEPTUAL APPROACH

The curriculum focuses on a conceptual approach to learning. A conceptual approach stresses understanding and application over recital.
