Education has taken on contradictory meanings. Some of us reject using the term to refer to our schools. It can be stated that our schools are at war with education. This blog was initially developed for the purpose of sharing some quick (rather than conclusive) pro-education/anti-schooling thoughts. This has been expanded to include a voice from the other side of the war. Admittedly, this voice was picked for its tendency to show the absurdities of the pro-schooling/anti-educational side.

Gradual Depth 4
As a personal project, I have decided to take a simple sentence and gradually expand on it in an attempt to explain and eventually detail my educational beliefs. This project can be seen as a series of blog posts in the Gradual Depth series.

Gradual Depth
Now that I am caught up with my schooling history posts, it’s time to start another series of posts. Much like the Future Stories on my personal blog, I want to play around with an idea. I don’t know how well it will work.
What’s this idea? I decided to start with a simple description of my educational beliefs and periodically add depth. Each time I make a post for this series, I will add something. The hope is that I will eventually have a decent document to explain what I believe. Since my series posts are roughly monthly (right now), this will be a slow process. I’m also fairly confident that I will always be able to find ideas to add. This means that this series can theoretically last forever.
My educational beliefs are based primarily around the concept of educational rights. I have even found a way to summarize my educational beliefs for use in my list of defining beliefs, and you might have already seen the words for the starting point in this series:
Those who want to learn should be allowed to do so with as little restriction as possible.
