STUDENTS & LEARNING...A blog of ideas, reflections, & musings about learning on behalf of all students. As in agriculture, educators plant seeds for learning, then nurture, wait, and watch for growth through the seasons of life. It is a gift and a challenge to cultivate an environment where lives are empowered to break ground from strong roots in a sense of value, worth, and community, to make their own contributions and find significance.

The Aim of Education
Dean William Ralph Inge said, "The aim of education is the knowledge not of facts but of values."
This is one of my favorite quotes about education. I am inspired and refreshed again each time I come across it.
