I applaud this woman. I have the same belief in her system that she has herself. Her methods really remind me of the FIRST Competitions. I personally think that it should be incorporated into the classroom. I don't know why the system does that catch on. Is it actively trying to teach conformity and lack of creativity. It weeds out those who fail to conform and praises those who do. It is great to know that there are people out there who see it as I see it.

I find it an interesting read to look at the medieval age Trivium style education and how its done. Obviously its an old system but the idea of education to be able to think for yourself and properly use information to have a viewpoint and defend it during the medieval age is noteworthy.

Once you get by the thought that Ken wants to sell you a vacuum cleaner (a la Dyson) this is quite the stimulating aesthetic experience. I want that diagram/drawing full-scale 60 mega-pixels if you got 'em!
