“What you can’t imagine, you can’t discover”
Albert Einstein
We can no longer place education entirely in the hands of the education cartels, the politicians, bureaucrats and organized labour unions who have distorted education into an appropriation of tax dollars to further their own power and control based agendas. No more neglecting the needs of the students, teachers and taxpayers. Constructive education should inspire “teachers who love teaching, to teach their students to love learning” The Spirit Alliance education plan focuses on building better human capabilities, better economic possibilities, better health, less inequality without a socio-economic divide.
Would we admire Einstein if everyone was like him? The beginning of knowledge is the discovery of something we do not understand and the foundation of our existence. For too many years, our educators have been mandated to follow a book based curriculum that ignores the fundamentals of developing the mind and spirit. Intelligence is not found in the knowledge of books, it is found in “our ability to imagine”
The “Human Spirit” can not thrive without knowledge and creativity. Together we will rebuild and restore the true essence of learning and together we will strive to make education affordable to everyone of any age or social standing. We must reestablish the integrity of learning for a healthier level of consciousness, our quality of life is in direct proportion to the quality of what we have learned.“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character is the goal of true education”. Martin Luther King
