Dr. Kingsford's definition of education was, to help students change or do new things, ultimately a process we participate, the end product is learning, and it is not confined to a school building. K-12, he said, was the beginning process of formal education and college is the next step. During our k-12 years, he stated, we learn intellectually, politically, economically, and socially. Our 4 year degree is more focused on what we learn from others and education we give ourselves.
Dr. Dunning described education as being engaged in a learning process. She covered three main points that she believed would help us with our education.
1. Work for the test or beyond
2. Ask questions
3. Go to your professor's office: You will recieve help and lets your professor know you care
Finally, Dr. Robertson began by asking,"Why are you here?" He went on to answer his own question by reminding us that we are here to glorify God, first and foremost, and we are not here by accident. How does God relate to things we study? He gave us a mind to use to glorify Him, therefore we should use our minds to learn and become educated about Him.
