Opis

Learning is a life long capacity and brings power and joy into our lives, no matter our destiny. Learning to learn how we learn best is beyond value. Traditional education is in crisis. A focus on the quantifiable and the easily measurable has stifled the experiential side of learning. This means that active participation and group experiences have often been replaced by traditional learning and standardized tests. Surprisingly, quantum physics and participatory methods may hold solutions. Nancy Ellen Peden is a lifelong learner and expert in the theories and practices of Transformative Learning and Change, a bold new field merging quantum and participatory theories with human processes, psychology, and philosophy. In her new book, she offers a vibrant alternative to traditional education-one where students co-create their reality using proven participatory and cooperative methods. Knowledge is best gleaned through our senses, feelings, imaginations, and personal expression. Peden advocates for whole-body education, a learning process influenced by our environment, our relatives, our elders, and other students. The result is a brilliant, caring, joy-filled learning environment in which students are free to discover their own learning styles and thrive. Designed with parents, grandparents, elders who care and young people in mind, Who's in Charge of My Life? is equally applicable to community groups and individual learners. Peden's groundbreaking work includes simple but profound exercises designed to encourage and facilitate quantum and participatory learning-and sets students on the road to becoming healthy members of society.
