Reflecting on Our Schooling System: A Call for Innovation and Autonomy I often get asked if I am against the traditional schooling system. Please be clear: I value schools and cherish the memories created there. However, my concern lies not with the system but the need for more academic innovation and constructive delivery. Despite children spending 60-70% of their waking hours in school activities, many do not love learning; they dread it. Schools often confine children to passive information consumption, requiring them to sit silently without meaningful interaction or engagement with peers. Even those children who love learning find their exposure limited to preparing for competitive exams or college entrance tests rather than exploring a broader educational experience. Furthermore, some businesses have responded by creating play-based learning products and superficial DIY kits, believing these to be solutions. While these might seem engaging, they often do not foster deep, meaningful learning. Parents eager to support their children flock to these products without realizing that authentic engagement comes from active participation and critical thinking, not just hands-on activities. Education should be about satisfying one's curiosity and crafting a personal learning journey, not just completing tasks to impress others or preparing for tests. Yet, when children try to take charge of their learning, the system can sometimes stifle their efforts. Moreover, the focus on competitive exams and securing college admissions overshadows the crucial socio-emotional learning that can take place. How we navigate personal challenges and interpersonal relationships is essential learning that must often be addressed. I aspire for a shift towards a schooling experience where children thrive, not just survive. We need a system where the joy of learning is paramount and where children understand why they go to school and how to make the best out of their time there. If you share this vision and want to empower your children to take charge of their learning, join me at EdReBoot, a 4-hour boot camp for parents. This Sunday, July 14th, from 4 pm to 8 pm, we will explore how to transform the educational experience to benefit our children's growth and happiness. Don't miss the opportunity to participate in this transformative experience. Together, let's reshape the future of education.

The Magic of Self-Directed Learning in Early Childhood Education In the journey of education, one of the most transformative approaches we can embrace is self-directed learning. This method allows children to take charge of their own learning experiences, fostering a sense of independence and curiosity that can last a lifetime. Why is self-directed learning so important in early childhood education? 1. Nurtures Curiosity: Children are naturally curious. By giving them the freedom to explore topics that interest them, we encourage a love for learning that goes beyond the classroom. 2. Builds Confidence: When children make choices about their learning, they develop confidence in their abilities and decision-making skills. 3. Enhances Problem-Solving Skills: Self-directed learners are better equipped to face challenges and think creatively to find solutions. 4. Promotes Lifelong Learning: Early exposure to self-directed learning sets the foundation for a lifelong passion for knowledge and growth. At Prime Luxelearners Institute, we employ self-directed learning by supporting children's natural curiosity and encouraging independent thinking through interesting learning programs. Ultimately our goal is to help them grow into confident, capable individuals. Enr0ll your kids and wards into any of our online teaching programs today! #EarlyChildhoodEducation #SelfDirectedLearning #PrimeLuxelearnersInstitute #Curiosity #Confidence #LifelongLearning #pamelaobazee

🌟 Shaping Futures through Hands-On Learning in Early Childhood Education! 🌈 In the dynamic world of education, it's essential to recognize the transformative impact of hands-on learning, especially in the formative years of early childhood. 👧👦 🖌️ Unleashing Creativity: Hands-on learning fosters a sense of creativity that textbooks alone cannot achieve. Whether it's painting, building, or experimenting, these activities empower young minds to explore and express themselves freely, laying the foundation for a lifetime of innovative thinking. 🤝 Teamwork and Collaboration: Engaging in hands-on activities encourages teamwork and collaboration. As children work together to solve problems or create something new, they develop crucial social skills and learn the value of cooperation—a skill set that is invaluable in the professional landscape. 🧠 Concrete Understanding: Hands-on learning provides a tangible and concrete understanding of abstract concepts. Through touch, exploration, and experimentation, children grasp complex ideas in a way that resonates deeply, setting the stage for a lifelong love of learning. 🚀 Building Confidence: When children actively participate in their learning journey, they build confidence. Whether it's successfully completing a project or solving a puzzle, the sense of accomplishment derived from hands-on experiences lays the groundwork for a positive self-image and a belief in one's abilities. 🏫 Future-Ready Skills: In an era where adaptability and problem-solving are key, hands-on learning equips children with the skills necessary for the future. The ability to think critically, approach challenges creatively, and collaborate seamlessly are the building blocks of success in any field. 🌐 Advocating for Change: As educators, parents, and professionals, let's advocate for the integration of hands-on learning in early childhood education. By championing this approach, we contribute to the holistic development of future leaders, thinkers, and innovators. 📚 #HandsOnLearning #EarlyChildhoodEducation #EducationRevolution #FutureLeaders #InnovationInEducation Let's continue to inspire and empower the next generation through hands-on learning! 💡✨ What are your thoughts on the impact of hands-on learning in early childhood education?

Outschool is taking a major step forward today in supporting kids' academic learning needs, especially those pursuing modern paths in Alternative Education. We're launch Outschool Courses, which is designed to empower families to craft their own individualized education with expert teachers, unique and engaging classes, easy scheduling, and progress tracking. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/g-s56af2 Post pandemic, more and more families are rejecting a one-size-fits-all education and embracing Alternative Education because every kid is different and their needs change with time. In our recent survey of families (covered by Newsweek here: https://lnkd.in/gvGcSk83) we learned: - Nearly a third (29%) of parents supporting Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) and other state-sponsored funding to offset the cost of alternatives to public education - 37% of families supported the idea of microschools and homeschooling cooperatives that are smaller and offer individualized attention - 44% support an online schooling model Outschool Courses is a big upgrade to Alternative Education, adding both academic rigor and making it easier to create a full curriculum to support your kids' academic learning needs outside of regular school. Get started here: https://lnkd.in/gikiqnsU This launch is the culmination of a 6-month effort across the company and I'm so proud of our team's commitment to empowering learners and teachers through bold changes in our product. Outshout to Spencer Bard for leading Courses from concept through production. I expect the coming school year to be more challenging than ever for families struggling with our legacy systems. Now is a great time to consider a change.
