Slide 2 of 9
Notes:
Former paper written specifically with the AERA 2000 symposium in mind.
Latter paper more generic on the redefinition of learning. (Based on chapter in forthcoming Kluwer International Handbook of Lifelong Learning.)
Both papers will be made available on learndev.org web site. I will also e-mail them on request.
- Is a culture of peace possible? Or are we biologically condemned to war?
Ref. to Seville Statement [1991] + Pinker [1997]: Issue is neither just
scientific nor merely moral, but approach required that transcends these
various limited viewpoints. This has broad implications for the school.
We must overcome the fragmentation of knowledge.
- How do we move from a culture of war to a culture of peace? And what has
learning to do with it? This is long-term issue.
