What is Education?

Education in the largest sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind, character or physical ability of an individual. In its technical sense, education is the process by which society deliberately transmits its accumulated knowledge, skills and values from one generation to another.

Press Releases / The Single-Gender Classroom

Imagine a classroom tailored in accordance with the likes and dislikes of your child. In your son’s class competition, physical activity and choice activities dominate the learning environment—even for math and language arts!! In your daughter’s class, she and her friends sit in groups; they collaborate and have the opportunity to be creative and inquisitive without the distraction of rambunctious little boys. These are the characteristics of the single-gender learning environment.

The classroom is alive with movement, noise and learning. There are 22 six and seven year old boys that appear to be not only engaged in active learning, but totally absorbed in the learning process. It’s as if the classroom and the activity are teaching and the teacher is just facilitating. This teacher is the conductor in a great symphony of learning. What makes this orchestra unique is that it is an all-boys class in a single gender experiment.

Press Releases / Character Education

Every parent wants their child to develop positive character traits. One way to supplement your child's character education is to act as a filter for the movies and television shows your child watches, and to review the books your child reads.

The following categories are modeled after "The Book of Virtues for Young People," an excellent book for children in its own right, written by William Bennett. When developing a curriculum of character education for your child, it's helpful to review each children's book, television show, and movie for both positive and negative examples of each of the ten virtues outlined in "The Book of Virtues for Young People." The stronger the message, the more it will contribute to your child's character education.

Following are some ways in which the virtues can manifest as character traits in children's books, movies, and in television shows:

Self-Discipline: A character discusses his feelings of anger rather than impulsively striking out. Or, a character gets his chores done before he goes out to play.

Compassion: A character understands the pain or suffering of a friend, and steps in to help, even when it means she can't attend the party she was looking forward to.

Press Releases / Volunteerism for Teenagers: A Great Character Builder

Volunteerism among high school and college students is at an all-time high; many school systems actually build volunteer work into their curriculum. Young people are building homes for Habitat for Humanity, working in National Parks for the Conservation Corps, and involving themselves in political, environmental, and social causes.

It's certainly admirable for young people to take an active part in these causes; but it may be even more important than routinely recognized.

Unfortunately, the United States is a materialistic society. Teenagers - many of them the same teenagers lining up to volunteer their time - have access to more discretionary funds than any previous generation, and they're spending it. CDs, DVDs, iPods, cell phones (and the accompanying bills), designer clothes, shoes, and bags - all of these material goods are in easy reach of many of our teenagers. Beyond the danger that these kids will grow up with unrealistic expectations when it comes time for them to move out, get a job, and support themselves, there's a real question as to whether these young folks, used to having anything and everything they want, will be able to relate to those less fortunate than they are.

Press Releases / A Brief Look at Attitudes-Based Learning (ABL)

By Dr. Alvin Chan Kok Chuen

The greatest discovery of my generation (about 1900) is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.

William James

'Sow a thought, reap an action. Sow an action, reap a habit. Sow a habit, reap a character. Sow a character, reap a destiny.'

Attitudes-Based Learning (or ABL, for short) is a program initiated in the year 2000 to inculcate positive attitudes and characters in children and teens in Singapore.

During that period of time, there were many incidents around the world that deserved our utmost attention. The rise of terrorism around the world was televised around the world and the increasing number of children and teens suffering due to drugs, physical and sexual abuse was alarming. The increase in school-related violence and incidents were reported widely, from America to Japan. Not to mention, several incidents involving teens going on a school killing spree in America.

Press Releases / Learning Through Heroes

Heroes inspire. Everyone wants to be associated with ordinary people who accomplish extraordinary feats. Recently, educators have recognized the importance of using heroes to teach children and adolescents various subject matters ranging from values to science.

Tony R. Sanchez, Assistant Professor of Social Studies Education at Purdue University recognizes that using role models and heroes can be quite effective when teaching values education. He claims that by examining the spirit of heroism, it serves as an invitation for the students to adopt the heroic spirit for themselves.

Dr. Mae Jemison, the first African-American in space, created the Jemison Group, which aims to bring the technological advancements to people across the globe and hopefully nourish students’ love for science. This explorer hero is very active in her undertakings. Schools on the other hand are actively using her as an example when teaching science. A few years ago, West Clayton Elementary School invited the astronaut to give a talk about space travel. After the visit, a significant number of students became more engaged in the subject matter. Children are inspired to learn of the countless possibilities that await them if they try hard enough to pursue their dreams.

Press Releases / A Chinese Answer to an American Puzzle

Character education? Look at the obstacles! No matter what you say, you'll be assailed by ACLU crazies or fundamentalists of one stripe or another. But suppose your mind is made up! You are determined to introduce deep thoughts into your classroom. Philosophical and spiritual thoughts, no less. I say, bless you. And here's a way to do it.

The Tao Te Ching is a seminal work in World Philosophy, World Religion, World Literature, World History, Asian Studies, and Chinese History. It may well be THE supreme multicultural document. Who would dare to criticize discussions of such a work?

Written (or compiled) almost 2500 years, the Tao Te Ching continues to fascinate intellectuals of all kinds. It is said to be the most translated book in the world, after the Bible. One site counts more than 125 English translations!

Press Releases / Cultural Conflicts and the First Amendment in Schools

Recently there has been an increasing surge in cultural and religious conflicts in public schools throughout the U.S. Some groups are more actively promoting posting of then national motto, “In God We Trust,” in classrooms. Others are pressuring school boards to include Intelligent Design alongside evolution in the classroom, while still others threaten to sue if they do. The current worldwide battle against terrorism has brought new questions about religious points of view and a fresh challenge of how to educate students regarding religious differences.

There are two ways districts usually respond to these kinds of issues. Most choose to ignore them, hoping they won’t emerge in their own district while others take the path of least resistance giving in to the latest group to threaten protests. There is a better way that can help you proactively establish an environment that can address these concerns that can deal with differences without polarizing in conflict.

Helping staff, students and your community understand and appreciate the First Amendment ideals that define our national life and provide a way for us to respect different points of view without forcing people to compromise their deepest convictions. The problem is most people don’t understand those ideals, or don’t appreciate how they can help us in these kinds of conflicts.

Press Releases / Teaching for 'Social Justice'?

The decline of mass media and the rise of the blogosphere have blurred the distinction between the consumer and the producer. Unlike their parents, who grew up as recipients of television wisdom, today’s youth upload writings and videos, in addition to downloading them. Don’t mistake this as a new fad, following hoola-hoop, bell bottoms, slap bracelets and pokemon. This shift empowers all citizens to speak freely, truthfully and recklessly; and it demands that teachers expand their idea of “teaching for social justice.”

Two ninth grade girls in my school took a picture of another ninth grade girl, posted it on the web, wrote “call me for a good time,” and posted the girl’s phone number as well. That night, this unsuspecting student received dozens of calls from men two and three times her age. On the face of it, this is nothing new. Adolescents are cruel and men are lecherous. Yet, the implications of this behavior are far graver than ever before. Who knows whether or not those men will be cyber stalkers, choose to find her home address, and pay her a visit? The dangers of blogging and uploading abound, from the publication of uncensored libel, to revealing the private information of others, to giving all forms of potential tomfoolery a public stage. None of this is news to anyone.

Press Releases / Legacies of Christmas Holidays for Children

I recall my Christmas days as a child, when all that seemed to matter then, were the gifts and the tree, a tree that was first a real pine tree, delivered by our favorite uncle from the mountain province, then later on, a tinsel tree, all green and shimmery. Beautiful! Beautiful because a tree did not have to be chopped down just to stand for a few days. The tinsel tree was beautiful. I have more memories putting it together and later on putting the parts back into the box while my memories of the real pine tree were of the pine needles messing up our floor and causing my skin to itch. Pine trees were meant to stay on soil to grow.

I remember watching out for the gifts under the tree. No one in the family knew why I did so. But now maybe 4 decades later I must confess, to any of my family who might read this article, I watched out for the gifts piling up, hoping that I would not get too many. I worried about my siblings not getting just as much. It worried me whenever I would randomly pick up a present and see my name written on it. It relieved me when I would see a sibling's name written on another gift. I never had the chance to tell my parents this. But I was genuinely thrilled to hear a sibling's name called out to receive a gift instead of mine. It is genuinely better to give than to receive.

Press Releases / The Power of Raising Awareness

I came across an article in the CEC SmartBrief that came from the Newton Daily News in Jasper County, Iowa, titled “Teacher writes book to raise awareness,” written by Jessica Lowe. It is about Jennifer Springer, a special education teacher at Delaware Elementary School, who was concerned about the teasing and bullying she had seen her students endure at the hands of fellow students. She was quoted in the article saying: “One of the more unfortunate things I have seen in my experience as a special education teacher are instances where my students are made fun of and rejected by peers. I feel that the issue for most kids is not that they are just cruel children, but that they are not educated and do not understand whey children with special needs do the things they do.”



As a tutor of those with learning disabilities I do not often see the actual bullying, but I have stories recounted to me by my students about their experiences of being teased and bullied. On a more personal level, my son, who is dyslexic, has shared with me his painful struggle with these types of encounters. The one that he remembers most and brings up occasionally is being called “dumbo” by a class mate after he received a low score on a spelling test. Others have made fun of his handwriting, which looks very juvenile with floating letters of different sizes and incorrect spacing due to his dysgraphia. I agree with Springer that these kids are not just cruel children but really do not understand the issues associated with dyslexia and so to them, it does appear as it will to most that these students are simply unintelligent.
