My Synthesizing Life

 

 

 

Reading not only unlocks the world around me, it can also help me to attain my career goals. My desire to become a certified public accountant has led me to select Gardner’s essay as my favorite article about reading and education. In fact I think my intellectual home is similar to the idea of synthesizing. While synthesizing is an important concept to many college students, both Gardner and I believe it is the best way to approach writing a research essay, managing an office, and making a career in a globalized world. In order to prove this, I will explore Gardner’s intellectual home, then I will describe mine, and lastly I will devise a future intellectual home.
