Advancing Knowledge Through Online Courses for Adults
Education is both the filling of a vessel and the kindling of a flame.
The above motto is a variation of a quote of Plutarch from Ancient Greece. We jump to our current age and suggest how we position our desired approach.
We are not lecture dominated, which has been the traditional instructional method for filling the vessel. We are not discussion dominated, which can be a method for kindling the flame. We seek to thrive in the massive middle: call our approach guided inquiry or interactive instruction.
Our belief is that people coming together filling a vessel and kindling a flame can leverage unexpected power and capabilities.
