THE NEXT STEP PODCAST - How To Read A Book (An Intro to Liberal Learning)  v1.1
play

08/26/11 • 65 min

***First Year Teacher Edition*** Here is the first of two parts of my presentation on "liberal learning" or what has more recently come to be known as "the lost tools of learning" or, the Trivium Method. The first three of the seven liberal arts, the Trivium, focus on the use of language and thought- the world of the mind. Since these methods are products of the rational abilities of the human mind, this type of education is quite universal, although it's image has been tarnished for many, many centuries. Only in the past few decades has the Trivium emerged as a viable educational model once again. While not a complete education in and of itself, it empowers the student to pursue the full capabilities of the mind, giving a comprehensive method, a time-tested suite of subjects, and numerous intellectual skills which will benefit them throughout their adult life. Instead of teaching you "what" to think, the Trivium method teaches you "how" to think. This is a way to increase your intelligence. Part 1 covers the introductory information on the Trivium Subjects and Method, while Part 2 covers the Trivium Skills.

THE NEXT STEP PODCAST - Gandhian Innovations (w/ Frank Aragona)
play

04/26/10 • 74 min

Frank Aragona, host of AgroInnovations podcast. His show does a lot of work to help provide people "in transition" with tools and practical considerations for building a human-scale culture amidst the decay of the modern day. With Frank's episodes dealing with Gandhian Economics fresh in mind, Frank and I chart new waters together and deal with the touchy subject of emotions, and their relation to the daily struggle of the "spiritual warrior." The time is now, so is it fear or laziness that is our biggest obstacle? AgroInnovations Website: http://agroinnovations.com Go straight away to the George Mokray interview on Gandhian Economics, if you please.

Tom Atlee has been a singular inspiration for this show, so for this episode you get to hear from the man himself. Former guest, Jim Rough, conducted this interview with Tom back in 2000 for The Jim Rough Show. This was five years before Tom's groundbreaking work, The Tao of Democracy, but still you are able to get a good grasp of the work of co-intelligence in the practical arenas of community and society. Not to be missed!!! Co-Intelligence Institute: www.co-intelligence.org Featured Song: "America is Waiting" by Brian Eno & David Byrne Email the Show: [email protected]

THE NEXT STEP PODCAST - The Problem of Labor and Leisure
play

07/27/11 • 102 min

I've always thought leisure to be a cross between rest and play. . .but as you'll hear from Dr. Mortimer Adler today, leisure is quite distinct from both rest and play in many ways. He begins by distinguishing leisure from the others and then continues on to discuss the problems of labor in an industrial society, primarily that increased production becomes the sole purpose of labor rather than the pursuit of true leisure. He then explains how the emphasis on production is at the expense of not only leisurely activity, but also a truly liberal education for all. His talk concludes with remarks on the loss of liberal education and the uses for it. Just what does a liberal education consist of? Well, as Adler points out, one would need many books to get at the answer, but in the next episode of the Next Step, I will be featuring a presentation I composed which introduces the modern 21st Century audience to the potential of liberal education for today's world.

THE NEXT STEP PODCAST - A Wisconsin Liberal on Change in America
play

03/24/11 • 84 min

First in this episode, I chat to the audience about my intentions in posting this talk by Wisconsin liberal, Gar Alperovitz, and how it is relevant to the union struggles in Wisconsin as well as the social process activism embedded in this show. I explain some of my half-formed connections between the notion of social process work and, for lack of better term, revolutionary struggles and protests and why I think such demonstrations should be among the last resorts of citizens. I then read briefly from The Syntopicon of the Great Books of Western Civilization, specifically excerpts from the chapter on CITIZEN. Gar Alperovitz gave this talk to the E. F. Schumacher Society in March of 2010 and it is available freely at the Internet Archive so I'll spare you the long/odd website link.

***First Year Teacher Edition*** In this, the second of a two part series, we cover the Trivium Skills: Reading For Understanding Taking Notes Coming To Terms The Paraphrase Finding The Argument Mental Concentration Memory Playing clips from Mortimer Adler's dvd version of How To Read A Book, as well as a short excerpt from Rev. Edmund Opitz' talk, The Liberating Arts, I outline for the audience a few essential skills that are required in order to obtain the most from a Trivium-based education. As the Trivium deals with the substance and structure of thought and language, it can be said to be a universal education, relevant to all human beings regardless of time and place. This is a way to increase your intelligence. Part 1 covers the introductory information on the Trivium Subjects and Method, while Part 2 covers the Trivium Skills.
