As we head back to school, it's apropos to consider the "why" of education. Why do we send out child off to school for hours a day (or spend hours a day homeschooling)? To what end?
Believe it or not, the true aim of education as we know it in America has shifted over the centuries - becoming more about preparing an efficient workforce than shaping engaged citizens.
Enjoy this conversation with David Goodwin, bestselling co-author of The Battle for the American Mind and President of the Association of Classical Christian Schools, as he dives into the progressive takeover of the modern education system, and how it differs from what a true, good, and beautiful education should be to shape the hearts and minds of each generation.
