‘Creativity & Revolution’

What is Education?

‘Challenging our Cultural Filters’

A Day of Reflection & Experience

Saturday 12^th February  2011     (10.30 – 4.30 )

FRIENDS MEETING HOUSE

Summerfield Road

 Wolverhampton

We live in a world that faces many challenges. It is a world where change is occurring at an unprecedented rate. We tend to take much for granted and we are perhaps unaware of the cultural filters that colour our view of the world and of hitherto acceptable ‘truths’. This effects our view on Spirituality, Religion, Science, Social Awareness and all areas of life.

One of the critical foundations of our views on our world is formal Education and particularly the concept of Universal Education.  Education is a relatively recent event in our human history and has, to some extent, become a  ‘Sacred Cow’ . This day will use the theme of Education to begin to critically examine the influences and filters of this and other Sacred Cows and how these influence our concept, practice and experience of Spirituality. 

There will be personal and video input  to stimulate our reflections. Our Video Input will be several recent ‘clips’ from a variety of source e.g.  Barack Obama and Sir Ken Robinson.
