Transition to Scholar is a sub-phase of Love of Learning that deserves special treatment.

Pre-adolescents kind of have their foot in both Love and Learning and Scholar worlds, and need to be free to be either/both/neither as the day may be.

 

 

 

The Lessons of Transition to Scholar

Learning never ends. Learning is used in adult life. I will someday educate children as part of the cycle of life. Learning combines doing with talking with practice (and later with thinking). Imitation speeds up the learning process. Unconscious creation needs to be followed by conscious work. *There is not an answer to everything (but there is to the most *important things). Character flaws hurt. I can contribute to society (or make the mistake of trying to achieve to impress). I have an impact on my own future. Mom and Dad have flaws. Mom and Dad also have authority, so I live in a potential tyranny that must be closely watched. There are other cultures, many of which are different than my own. --from Leadership Education by Oliver and Rachel DeMille     Remember when you felt these things?
