"...as with everything else in your life, you have two
choices: you can play it shallow or you can play it deep..."
~Marianne Williamson
Of course, this little adage can
have many, many applications; but it's worth considering how it might
affect the way you approach your children's education - not to mention, your own.
~Oliver DeMille, TJEd.org

What is TJEd?

Every person has inner genius. Thomas
Jefferson Education consists of
helping each student discover, develop and polish his or her genius.
This is the essence and very definition of great education.
There are really only three kinds of
education, and they are best
understood from the student's perspective. Students get a good education
for one of three reasons:
- they are forced to study long, hard and effectively (the "Stick")
- they are convinced or manipulated to study long, hard and effectively (the "Carrot")
- they love to study long, hard and effectively (the "Love Affair")
If the first two are "good," the latter is truly "great."
The Stick, the Carrot, or the Love Affair: these are the three types
of education; and the love affair is by far the most effective.
