In today's episode, Jason continues his series exploring the use of Aristotle's philosophy by proposing to replace Bloom's taxonomy with moral and intellectual virtues of craftsmanship. He discusses why instruction is needed to guide the students' minds as they learn, challenging the notion that children can learn what they need to learn on their own. Finally, he demonstrates how the hand, heart, and head are intertwined and should be educated together rather than separately. Music: https://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music
