VISION OF EDUCARE

This website is designed for you the Teacher, the Parent, the Learner.

  • To ENGAGE in the vital conversation about education in America

  • To EVALUATE what we can do

  • To ENCOURAGE us to act

Educare - The Learning Story

Educare – The Learning Story is devoted to thoughtfulness and reflections, ideas, wonderings, concepts, and experiences that underpin the two basic concepts of:

  • Drawing forth the learning story of each person & caring enough to add meaning & value to each person’s life story.

How can  Educare – The Learning Story support you?

Each month the website / blog will focus on a specific educational theme. The best practices, innovations & conversations associated with that theme will accompany the central topic. Your stories and comments pertaining to your experiences and ideas about that topic will fill the blog, widen the conversation and complete that story line. At the end of the month all the input will be summarized and further resources and take-a-ways will be suggested. There is much to be gained through thoughtful reflection and conversation.We stay connected, enlarge our understanding, and move the world of learning forward.

LEARN

Curiosity catapults us into learning. That curiosity begins at birth and can flourish throughout our entire life. Children exhibit a boundless curiosity. How can that vital force be nourished in all of us? Abundant resources exist to encourage curiosity resulting in a learner for life.
TEACH

At some level we are all teachers. Whenever we help with homework, show someone how to bake, clean, change the oil, interpret a passage, set the table, tackle an algebra problem, plant a garden, build a bird feeder or talk kindly to others we are all teaching. The most effective tool any teacher can utilize is to be a superb learner.
CARE

The reason we tell stories is that we want to pull others into our shared experiences and feel their support, their compassion. Everyone on planet earth has a stake in caring about the future. Holding a vision for the future is synonymous with education. Caring about others provides the key to unlocking the enormous potential present in forming relationships that matter. This may well be our next frontier of learning. How do we break the barrier of difference and attend to the rich vein of potential where many minds who have different perspectives can come together to overcome problems with attainable goals.
