In ancient times Aristotle studied all manner of things under the subject philosophy. This included astronomy, ethics, poetics, drama, biology, mathematics etc. All these were researched and taught in the ancient universities of Greece where modern science was born. As human civilization became more ‘advanced’ and the technology for daily living got more and more complex, knowledge got compartmentalized.
Today’s education system is not only divided and subdivided into water tight match boxes so as to lose the whole picture, but is also cut off from life, nature, real life problems, emotions and relationships. Students in school see no meaning and as a consequence of this lose their natural curiosity and love for learning.
Many of our crises - environmental, political and personal are a result of this disconnectedness.At MKF we demonstrate the essential interrelatedness and interdependence of Man on Man, Man and Nature through an organic, integrated school experience. |
