So much wisdom here! I’ve been steeped in Circe Institute for several years in our homeschool, and I have grown as much or more in my faith and appreciation for truth than my children. Thank you Andrew Kern. You’ve been a blessing to my family and my homeschool community.

Excellent. We home-educated our four UK kids with fantastic results. We are now bouncing this great discussion on to them to encourage them in their home-educating endeavours. BTW: Please pray for the church in the UK in the light of today's extraordinarily dire election results over here. "Put not your hope in princes..."

Have a listen to Autumn Kern's (of The Common House) interview with Andrew Kern. She's a home educator who has done so much to open up my mind to classical education (via Charlotte Mason). Perhaps your children will like her very practical breakdowns of the philosophy of education :) from a fellow UK home educator
There are so few teachers or administrators who could understand what Kern is even saying with regard to how kids are going to fail to creative a cohesive philosophy out of the forced merger of incompatible philosophies that they receive in school.

This speaks to the current crisis I’m experiencing within myself regarding my future career. I’m about to start as a professor of exercise science at a small college and I’m filled with excitement and dread because I want to make a difference but the way I have been taught in this field and the norm is just transmitting information…there’s no self evaluation, philosophical inquiries/debates about the topics, seldom is their application or explanation of why we need to know the information…Additionally, the rising costs of education (even though the information hasn’t changed unless you’re at the cutting edge of research) make it harder for me to feel good about having this job. The students knowledge of the subjects isn’t anymore superior to students who took the same class 20 years ago, yet they’re paying 1000x more and I’m not seeing any of that money in my salary…I want to add those things to my classes (i.e., self-evaluation, debate/inquiry, application, etc.), which is why I’m excited but I’m also worried about the push back and buy in from students and if it will even matter or work, which is why I’m filled with dread.

1:15:01 One thing to be aware of is that Christian schools in Australia still have to follow the national curriculum. The only way to avoid the national curriculum is to homeschool, but only in some states.

John does not understand what Andrew is saying. John says Education is to equip students for the workplace Andrew says precisely the opposite. It is NOT to just equip for the workplace. It is FOR students so that they can see their GLORY in Christ

Yes, we do see their glory, some of us do; enough of us do. Aside from raising our children to be outstanding young achievers, net contributors to the common good, but spending a great deal of our professional lives designing and implementing extension and enrichment programs, school excursions, advancing school years into higher grades, we slowly make good steady progress. Here in Western Australia, under the Barnett/Constable reforms we now have state-owned schools run independently of centralised state bureaucracy, with Year 7 now part of secondary school. Don't lose hope, it's happening. As those children we raised take their place in the world, aware of how high parenting, education, training, mentoring standards can be, refusing to regress, watch and see even further progress being made.

When teachers say that are cultivating "virtue" in their students, they have a completely different meaning for the word. They are saying that they are conforming to the latest fashions.

There are universal divine laws that include human beings in all parts of the earth. They are similar to them and there is no dispute over them. This is evidence that these laws are implanted in people automatically and are in harmony with all people in every place. For example, divine law, worship, security and safety, love of goodness and hatred of evil. And morals……..and this means that the origin of religion is the same and the values are the same, and the difference in them is nothing but new corruption through ignorance and intentionality.

I'm not sure if this piece applies to myself, family or friends. To put it bluntly, I grew up in the 1980's / 90's in the Northern British rust belt. Why bother trying to commit suicide when there's so much trying to kill you. As a Christian I do respect your beliefs however and recognise that it's an important subject to be considered. I'm a Scottish Quaker. Here our problem is a lack of recognition of personal responsibility towards avoiding drugs and other mental health issues. Unfortunately fueled by a cheap Devolved SNP blame government who won't invest in rehabilitation. So finding out about the soul and alternatives to self destruction is important. Keep up the good work.

We should not eliminate words. We should aim to be precise with their definitions and their use. On a related note: to those who do the following, please stop shoe-horning biological/natural world terms into business-speak. Ecosystems are in the natural world; this word, and other such words should not be taken for use in the techno/business/economic/governmtalish paradigm (intersystem is the better word). It's turning language into Frankenstein's monster.
@TarkynSharples22 ай бұрын
Correct definitions of words, use of precise language, and making sure that interlocutors are of the same understanding, are foundational in anything that involves communication. Sadly, it seems as though most people enjoy corruption of language, excusing it by proclaiming that, "The evolution of language is good!"

That’s a fair question. If I may offer a response, I agree with the earlier comment. Classical education is not an American thing; it is a human thing. If Australians will embrace it they will be nourished by it just as we have in the States. If that is too general, I apologize but it’s hard to be more precise in a KZbin comment thread. As I said, you are asking a fair question that deserves a well reasoned answer. I hope you get one that satisfies you.
