=A Whole New Mind for Educators - Implications=

Use this page to discuss the implications of promoting or not promoting whole-brained education in schools.

//My two cents//: In my mind, education is best judged by how prepared students are to function in the wider world. This is a target that is hard to quantify, so instead, much of the evaluation of the worthiness of a school relies on measures that can be quantified. But these quantifiable measures are at odds with the realities of the changing world Pink describes in AWNM, and I fear that students will be ill-prepared for the wider world if schools do not validate the development of the whole brain, including right-brained aptitudes. //Marty Foley, MS teacher @ [|GSFS] .//
