State of our Learning
"In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present".
-Tao Te Ching
What is the state of our learning? Is it rooted in the daily realities in which we live, or has it been transported to some imaginary land of data, statistics and figures. I have taken the position that education is meant to impact all aspects of a person's life, not merely test one's skill of memorization and regurgitation. Education should be a process of self-discovery and knowledge acquisition......and yes this can be fun.
Does overburdening the learning environment with strict regimentation equal greater effectiveness? I would say that it does not and can even impede the ability of students to grow, learn and think. Muscles, even those of an intellectual nature must be strengthened through use and challenge.
