Who Killed the Liberal Arts by Heather MacDonald

If you have ever wondered why our educational system is failing students, then this video is for you.  While this is not representative of the whole picture of what's plaguing modern education, it is an important piece of the puzzle.  And remember, as a Christian with a Godly destiny, your job is to solve vexing problems and bring forth solutions as salt and light.

If you feel called to serve the purposes of God's Kingdom via education, then this video should provoke you to "get after it."

Prager University opines, "What in the world happened to the liberal arts? A degree in the humanities used to transmit the knowledge and wisdom imbued in the works of great Western artists, writers, musicians and thinkers like Shakespeare and Mozart. But today, that same degree stresses Western racism, sexism, imperialism, and other ills and sins that reinforce a sense of victimhood and narcissism. So, what happened? Heather Mac Donald of the Manhattan Institute explains."

He argues that education should be personalized to every student's talent, passion, and learning styles, and that creativity should be embedded in the culture of every single school."

According to TedxDenverTeachers, "The rate of change in the world demands that we re-imagine and restructure the foundational learning relationship among students, teachers, and knowledge. In September 2012, pursuing a decades-long passion for transformational education, Grant packed up his Prius and set off on a solo, nationwide research tour to discover what schools are doing to prepare students for an evolving future. Find out what he learned from three months on the road visiting 21 states, 64 schools, and the great ideas of 500 educators."

If you are a Christian with a destiny to effect the world of learning, then from this video you can see that we need you to live your Godly destiny.  Will you step up and be the expression of Christ we need in our educational system?
