The other night we listened to a guest lecture given by none other than Marie Palmer (an old friend of Ben's) about a Thomas Jefferson Education. I have always loved the idea about using classics to teach and it was inspiring to remember that I needed to continue to further my education as well. Although I want to look into it more before giving it my whole hearted stamp of approval I did like a lot of the concepts that we discussed. For example, I loved the pillars of learning. Teaching children through classics, mentors, simulations, field experience, and God. I will let you know what I think when I get a little further in my research!
