Found this AWESOME short article in my archives… I think from a Mark Victor Hansen newsletter. It has some great thoughts on how we can begin to teach our children. You WILL get a lot out of it… maybe even change the way you think about learning!

“Each one, reach one. Each one, teach one. Until all are taught. - Mark Victor Hansen -

Change expert Don Wolfe teaches that there are two kinds of learning: informational learning and transformational learning, or head learning and heart learning.

Informational learning is predominant in our educational system. Teachers talk; students listen, take notes, take tests, get grades, and so on. It’s all about memorization and regurgitation.

Transformational learning is about empowering students to discover the answers for themselves. It’s a slower process, but much more profound. That’s why it’s transformational.

We live in the age of too much information and not enough transformation. When people get stuck, it’s rarely because they don’t know enough. It’s because they lack the ability to act on what they already know. Transformational learning is not about taking notes in a notebook. It is about writing the lessons on your heart and in every cell of your body-so that your behavior flows effortlessly, without compulsion, from the wellspring of your natural desire to live the life you were born to live.

The main goal of transformational learning is to cause you to experience ‘ahas’. An aha is when your awareness expands?when you ?get it.? The lights go on and you say to yourself, ‘Aha!’

What did you aha today?
