– traces its roots to 6th century BC. The religion didn’t really prosper until
hundreds of years late around 100 AD. Taoism started as a combination of
psychology and philosophy but evolved into religious faith in 440 CE.
– Tao means the “way” or the “path”

– Believed that a persons action should be influenced by instinct and
conscience.
– The yin-yang sign. The Ying(dark side) is the women side and the yang (light

– “Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish; feed him for a
lifetime. Lao Tzu, spoke these words over 2000 years ago. Education is similar to
this principle. For centuries students were “fed” information and taught to
memorize facts, in the hope they would retain a portion of what was taught.
Today it isn’t enough just to feed information to students. Our world is changing
so fast that new information becomes available faster than it can be taught. If a
nation wants to keep pace with this ever-changing world, then learning can’t
stop at graduation. Students as well as teachers must learn “how to fish” for
knowledge by becoming life long learners. Teachers can become life-long
learners by realizing and acknowledging that life long-learning is a necessity; by
learning to keep up with changes through personal and professional
development; and by teaching with passion, inspiring young minds to see
learning as something wonderful.
Life-long Learning is a Necessity
– Children have a sense of wonder when they are young. “Keeping the joy in
learning should be a priority of every school and every teacher.” (Warner,
2006)If children can keep their sense of excitement about the world, they will
love to learn and that original excitement and love of learning will most likely
stay with them for life. To help keep the excitement alive, teachers aim to
inspire young minds. They want their students to see how much fun learning
can be. When teachers model excitement about learning, students will see
learning as something positive to be imitated. In turn they will hopefully
become life-long learners themselves.
