"Life has never been normal," wrote C. S. Lewis in "Life has never been normal," wrote C. S. Lewis in an address to students at the outset of World War II. If we are waiting for a better time to pursue truth, goodness, and beauty, we may never set foot out the door. The work of the philosopher is to seek the truth regardless of circumstances, and one cannot begin it too soon. On July 23, Gutenberg College opens its (virtual) doors to young philosophers for a day of thoughtful discussion about important philosophical ideas.⁠ •⁠ Participation is limited to high-school-age participants.⁠ •⁠ Click linkin.bio to learn more.⁠ • ⁠ #wisdom #culture #learning #homeschool #homeschooling #sonlight #college #education #classicalconversations #philosophy
The Gutenberg board of governors is once again spo The Gutenberg board of governors is once again sponsoring its annual summer gift-matching program. As Gutenberg prepares for an increased number of students this year, we need to raise over $75,000 for student financial aid grants. The governors are generously pledging to match the first $12,900 of donations, for a total of $25,800 to help those students who need financial aid to attend the college. Our goal is to raise that amount by Gutenberg Giving Day on August 8. You can help give students an excellent education by making a contribution.⁠ •⁠ Click link.bio to donate now⁠ •⁠ #greatbookscollege #liberalarts @gutenbergcollege #gutenbergcollege

Education Conference: The Art of Learning⁠ •⁠ September 3-5, 2020⁠ •⁠ In the predominant view of education, the student’s primary job is to consume and store information, much like a computer. But such a view misses the true nature of learning. Learning is a dynamic process in which a student, like an apprentice, slowly builds skills and knowledge, constantly self-correcting toward mastery and a sound worldview. A key component of the process—frequently overlooked in modern education—is a student’s moral orientation toward truth. In this conference, we will explore the art of learning through talks and workshops in order to become better learners and better teachers.⁠ •⁠ Join us to interact with guest speakers Nancy Pearcey, Andrew Pudewa, Leigh Bortins, and the tutors of Gutenberg College as we engage with the big questions of learning.⁠ •⁠ Click linkin.bio to register for the conference.⁠
As part of the Winter 2020 Art Practicum, Gutenber As part of the Winter 2020 Art Practicum, Gutenberg students study the art of musical composition by learning and performing traditional Javanese gamelan music. Today, we learned Bubaran Udan Mas, a cyclical, 4-layered gamelan composition that is performed at the end of a concert. Students learned about traditional 5-note and 7-note scales and tuning systems, various metallophones and metallurgical technologies, and how worldview informs the structure and content of art. @gutenbergcollege #greatbookscollege #liberalarts
