Time for a Copernican Revolution in Education
A popular children's author has enraged mothers after suggesting that day care constitutes child abuse. But what should we say about some of the K-12 schools out there?
Now after 200 years of increasingly cold, institutionalized education, Kevin Swanson suggests a Copernican Revolution in Education. He unveils a new Education Manifesto in which the definition, goals, method, and content of education are reworked from the perspective of a biblical world and life view.
The classical Greek form of education separates knowledge from life, the fear of God from knowledge, character from education, and relationships from the paideia. In this segment of the Generations broadcast, Kevin Swanson suggests that Christians should stop borrowing from the humanists to inform their methods of education, which in the end only cripples the faith.
