EducationGuardian.co.uk | higher news | Howells warns of merciless university market:
It's good to read of a governement minister saying this:
"'We've become very utilitarian in the department for education. I'm in a lucky position of having returned after six or seven years.
'Learning for learning's sake is something we should criticise very warily. People want to learn simply because learning is wonderful and it's the second best thing I know in the world.'"
Question is; will it make any difference? Learning is at the heart of human being: we learn as we live and live as we learn. Things like therapy and life coaching and management are all about learning. Time to value it for itself not just instrumentally.
Nous like scouse or French -oui? We wee whee all the way ... to mind us a bunch of thunks. Too much information? How could that be?
