About The Spirit Of Education

In this podiobook: What is education? It's a term we use every day to describe the process of putting 25 or 30 young souls into a cinder block room and filling their heads with what-all over the course of the first quarter of their lives. But is that education? True education is not a process of pouring in from without, but of calling forth what is within. It's not a process of memorization, it's a process of nurturing, of allowing, of evoking. It's a process of bringing forth the person one is meant to be. "...one of those books that provides a banquet, not a morsel, of food for thought." --education review Any donations made to this book will go directly to First Book, a nonprofit organization with the mission of providing books to children from low-income families.

Chapter 18: The Moon - The Spirit Of Education

-In this episode: Let's build a society where education can serve the purpose inherent in the word itself: educing that which is within us. Let's build a society wherein people are honored and valued just because they've agreed to come to the planet and offer their in

Chapter 17: The Star - The Spirit Of Education

-In this episode: Perhaps the future of education looks like this: perhaps it will begin with who we truly are as humans. Perhaps it will aid us in knowing our world, not only in a mechanistic way but in a complete way, with depths of beauty and mystery intact. Perhap

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
