Learning has spread from a simple classroom to a thousand different sites - to tiny screens lighted up across the world. Adler certainly imagined that personal growth and fulfillment was a fundamental objective of humanistic learning. In other words, we cannot find personal fulfillment in solipsistic pursuits. We are, by nature, directed outward. We are connected.
Education passes on tradition.
Through story, myth, and symbol it connects one generation to another. Some people look on tradition as a given. It is something like a Holy Grail passed but not altered from one age to another. I would prefer to think of tradition as rootedness. It s a grounding and a soil from which constant new growth emerges.
