REAL LEARNING EXPERIENCE
No means of starting a debate, but it’s not all about books and the teacher’s manual.
Schools and universities are still the best system to learn the right things, but there are few life lessons that are not taught. One of them, is on how to face the real world. Yes, our good educators help us in getting ready, but there are lessons beyond the teacher’s manual. And the reality is that, most of the top in class are not ready on how to adapt to a new work environment.
We were taught early of ABC’s, but we learned typography. We discovered the shapes, and we are now mastering Line Art. We are guided how to color, and then we learned about hues, values and tones. The digital platforms made it easy for us, so let’s capitalize on that opportunity. We early learned the foundations, and we are to develop the process. Almost everyone can read, but not all can decipher the message. We can talk, and have the ability to communicate through our works. The things we learned are the foundations of what we are now. It would be senseless if there are no applications. Be intentional. We need to learn more beyond books, so we can be equipped on daily battles. We may learn from reading, but not all can unleash their passion. Our parents influenced us to draw, but not all of us are encouraged to explore our creativity. It is a blessing for a child to have supportive parents. Imagine bringing you to an institution where all you have to do is enjoy your passion. What a wonderful gift!
