Schoolosophy: The Paideia Program
http://schoolosophy.blogspot.com/2011/03/paideia-program.html
Wednesday, March 16, 2011. I came across the paideia program about 10 years ago. When I first read it, I fell in love with the vision these educators painted. It strongly influenced my thoughts about what K-12 education should be and what the real purpose of education is- namely, to lead individuals in the pursuit of discovery about the world and, more importantly, self. May 17, 2011 at 3:38 AM. April 2, 2012 at 3:53 PM. By far, the most important pedagogical aspects of the Paideia proposal relate to the...

Schoolosophy: The Nine Bead Abacus
http://schoolosophy.blogspot.com/2012/01/nine-bead-abacus.html
Saturday, January 7, 2012. The Nine Bead Abacus. Joe doesn't seem to have any actual data. Posted pertaining to his research, but based on his experience and analysis, I am going to say his educated guesses about the value of a 9 bead abacus are spot-on. Check out this video of a 9 year old who has become so proficient with a soroban. July 31, 2012 at 11:27 PM. Note: Only a member of this blog may post a comment. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Schoolosophy: October 2010
http://schoolosophy.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 28, 2010. This site talks about the effect of helping to educate young girls. Worldwide, vast numbers of girls are married before the age of 18. Because they are most often poor girls who are married so young and have children almost immediately, claims the site, these girls often must turn to prostitution to support their families. This helps further the spread of AIDS, among other problems. Posted by Jackson's Mom. Tuesday, October 12, 2010. Posted by Jackson's Mom. I haven't looked t...
