Thank you for taking the time to read my writing. Hear, you will think about our youth designing their dreams to better their lives; our visual educational program has been proven over and over again throughout our busy lives. Let’s play word association; I will list several visual abstracts, mottos, one-liners, skits, or whatever you desire, to expose the secret gift to learning.
First, how does one define learning? When did you begin learning about things? What do you do when you get older? Stop learning? I fear not. To learn is to live, therefore, to live is to learn. The words learning and living symbolize more than their deconstructive thought. To live is essential because without it, you cannot be. The secret to learning is just "being." In this environment, when learn how to create something without moving a finger, you realize everything associated to our physical universe is first initiated by our fears because we are too impatient to look and see what we can do for ourselves.
By actually visually accepting a "thimage," (a thought image such as the purple fountain I Romeo and Juliet, your brain accustoms itself and relies significantly on the mind’s interpretation and its emotions. For example, "the golden arches" being McDonald’s has never lost its luster. You show any school student a picture of the golden arches, and not only they’ll recognize the company, but some will get hungry! (great trick.) it’s amusingly ironic how private businesss has found ways of visually marketing their products, whereas in education, it’s all about what’s on today’s agenda; NCLB standard 1.3. When I hear "1.3" I am induced to believe the power and influence of a complete illusion rested upon our very eyes. The problem, ironically, is private business. What has happened over the past 7 years, private businesses have flooded our schools to reinvent the wheel; of course, some programs work and are helpful to students. But what if your students walk away from our current system because their impression of the "two-car garage and two kids to a home, is depleted; almost as though your gas tank is on low. The path is mighty cloudy and ambiguous; kinda like the veteran’s mother who called terrorists "freedom fighters;" her mind being cloudy and chaotic due to the inept and irresponsible acts of violence against humanity; being included within those parameters; ourselves.
