Process Explorations: As We Think, We Live: Critical Challenges for Educational Systems and Teachers with Chris Hughes
At the heart of Whitehead’s thinking is a healing unity. For many people a first encounter with Whitehead’s vision is a romance, a felt sense in the body, a shift in the ground under their feet. Whitehead himself saw romance as the first, and necessary, stage of deep learning. I think we can spark such a romance in young people. PROcess is a first attempt in this direction. This session explores both the need and the how of this attempt.
