Educating America Conceptually Featuring Ed Thompson

Up next on Way of the Renaissance Man, Educating America Conceptually Featuring Ed Thompson One of the best things about having the Way of the Renaissance Man podcast is I get to have great conversations with the some of the smartest people in the world. You often hear that education is the key to success. And while I agree with that statement in principle, it's important to understand that it is the kind of education one gets that really matters. In the new episode of the Way of the Renaissance Man podcast, I speak with Ed Thompson , a man whose mission is to help reeducate America, conceptually. Ed is the founder of the Conceptual Education Project, a group spearheading an effort to reform the education system by guiding it away from the current "progressive" philosophy first created by John Dewey , and into a more "conceptual" philosophy. The basis of the organization's program is to help train intellectuals who can articulate and advocate a rational approach to primary and secondary education, with a view to radically influencing how teachers colleges teach. If you are concerned with the current state of the anti-conceptual approach to education that pervades America's K-12 system, and you want to find out how you can help make things more philosophical, and more conceptual, then this episode is a great place to start.
