Edge-U-Cation Spore

As the global economy and our planetary environment continue to mutate at a rapid pace, we need a new approach to education. As school tuitions skyrocket and students express frustration in the US and abroad, the academic curriculum has also become dated. Many schools and universities indoctrinate people into belief systems and ideologies that are now outmoded, or train them for jobs that will no longer exist by the time they graduate. At the same time, basic skills that support self-sufficiency and sustainability are not taught.

A new approach to education is necessary - one that fits an ever-more globalized and rapidly transforming world. In our contemporary culture, learning how to learn and how to think independently is just as important as mastering any particular technical skill. Through the global commons, the quest for self-realization and self-knowledge via education no longer needs to be mediated by institutions, but can become a perpetual process of creativity and discovery.

The date for the Education Spore has been set for the 2nd of April and the venue is booked. This is a lot of time for those of us who practice or have mastered a skill or line of development to share with the Evolver community that gift that can help bring change in to this world. Now including Kevin's presentation / discussion "Two Trees!"

As you volunteer, you can expect support in getting your presentation rolling, choosing an appropriate format and any other help I am able. So, please let me know if you would like to present or discuss, and also generally, drop me a line indicating you have interest in being present for the event (so we have an estimate for attendance).

Please pass this on to any who may have missed it.
