A-ha! Working through a topic or question, a shaft of sudden
inspiration hits. The cloud of fragmented ideas and thoughts clear
as a whole picture begins to form coherently in your mind. What you
have now worked out - in an unexpected, exciting eureka moment -
will stay with you forever. All teachers seek this experience for
their students. Liz Attwell explores theories of education to argue
that traditional teaching, 'filling buckets', must be replaced by
dynamic, progressive teaching that promotes active learning - not
just 'lighting a fire', but knowing how to lay the sticks and
finding the matches too. This progressive approach seeks to create
a basis for inner awakening and original insight, in order for
students ultimately to come to their own a-ha moments. In A Drop of
Light, Liz Attwell presents her original research into the
phenomenon of a-ha moments, offering a theoretical background as
well as practical advice to give teachers the tools, lesson plans,
anecdotes and inspiration to bring living thinking to their own
classrooms. Goethe's approach and Rudolf Steiner's pedagogical
ideas make an important contribution, but Attwell advises that
teachers following Steiner's philosophy should enter into dialogue
with educators from other backgrounds. Working together,
enlightened teachers around the world can help schools and colleges
to become true learning communities.
