This eBook is a reproduction of an important historical work of Albert Edward Wiggam, which was published between 1925 and 1930. In this eBook, you will discover that an educated man (or woman) is not a personality with abundant academic degrees but with the following traits: ability to cultivates open-mind, ability to listen, never laugh at new ideas, knows the secret of getting along with other people, cultivates the habit of success, controls his/her thoughts, always ready to learn new things, always confidence about his/her skills and many more. In addition, you will be exposed to the following basic features of Life: Life is Practical (Education must be usable); Life is Dynamic (Education must be vital, alive, and active.); Life is Recreative (Education must train men and women –young and old, for play as well as for work.); Life is friendly (Education should teach humanity the art of friendship with all races, colors and creeds.); Life is cooperative (Education must teach a man/woman his/her place in the community and his/her duties toward it.); Life is idealistic (Education must be practical because life is a hard practical thing; but it must be idealistic because man is a dreamer; and "dreams are the makers and feeders of the world.) As stated in the book, which was based on the surveyed carried out by Dr. David Mitchell by examining many hundreds of people. If you will ask the next one hundred people you meet what they would do if they had plenty of money and were free to do as they pleased, without a single exception they will answer with the one word, “Travel”. Also, according to the author, large lustrous eyes may indicate intelligence, but having tested a great many people with large lustrous eyes and found them feeble-minded. Coarse hair does not indicate a coarse nature, and red hair does not indicate a fiery temperament. Blonds and brunets are equally good salesmen, buyers and executives. I hope this book shall convince the reader that the different in men and women is not the superior of mental ability but merely understanding a difference in mental habits. Of Course, every educated man or woman must understand this!

Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University. Only then would she wonder if she’d traveled too far, if there was still a way home. “Beautiful and propulsive . . . Despite the singularity of [Westover’s] childhood, the questions her book poses are universal: How much of ourselves should we give to those we love?

A magisterial project: a dual biography of the preeminent figures of Judeo–Christian civilization overturning conventional views of Moses and Jesus as humble men of faith. By reanimating the biographies of Moses and Jesus in their historical context, Rosenberg reads their narrative as a cultural—rather than religious—endeavor. He charges that Moses and Jesus were "educated" men, steeped in the literature and scholarship of their day. There were no old or new testaments for them, only a long history of writing and writers. When scholars and clergy quote Moses and Jesus, they routinely neglect to inform us that Jesus is quoting the Hebrew Bible, often in the manner that Moses quoted Egyptian medical texts. The remarkable ability of both men to recall and transform a wide range of sources is overlooked. Where did they get these profound educations? Part biography, part critical analysis, An Educated Man challenges us to envision what defines "an educated man or woman" today—and how understanding religious history is crucial to it. Rosenberg offers a sympathetic approach to why we need Judeo–Christianity—and ultimately convinces us that the life of Jesus is unthinkable without the model of Moses before him.

Purpose: To get beyond religious, philosophic, and political definitions of educatedness by going empirical. To redo Plato, in effect, by defining "the good" empirically. Background: This research was part of the Excellence Science (orthogonal disciplines) Research Project at the University of Chicago. That project redid Plato by defining "the good" empirically using artificial intelligence protocol analysis and total quality process modeling methods embedded in surveys and interview instruments. A sample of eminent people in 63 professions from 41 nations was asked who is top in your field and upon what capability basis did they rise to the top, producing 54 routes to the top of nearly any field, one of which was educatedness. 150 people nominated as top (5+ from each of 63 diverse occupations) in their field due to educatedness were asked what that consisted of, in constituent capability terms. This paper reports a categorical model of their answers and compares it to a categorical model from philosophers of education. Method: Finding highly educated acting people via a double nomination process used by expert system programmers. Finding their capabilities via protocol analysis from artificial intelligence expert system building and process modeling from total quality programs embedded in questionnaire and interview instruments. Sample: 8000+ people, 150 in each of 54 distinct "excellence sciences" (educatedness, effectiveness, creativity, managing complexity, handling error, etc. for 54 routes to the top of nearly any field) from 41 nations (half resident in the USA, half visiting/studying there), were given questionnaires and interviews over a period of years. Analysis: Tens of thousands of answers, that is, individual capabilities, were categories hierarchically and the final hierarchy of categories regularized fractally. The same approach was applied also to texts on educatedness by usual philosophers, politicos, and religious leaders for comparison purposes. Results: 48 capabilities of highly educated people, 3 for each of 16 categories--one such model empirically derived and another such model, for comparison, derived from texts on educatedness. Recommendations: The philosopher text-derived model emphasizes liberation and de-mystification a great deal more than the empiric model. Also, the "virtues" of the empiric model are enormously different than the 18th century style virtues some modern philosophers and educators want us to return to. The model-build and model-apply basis of modern work--so involved in the Wall Street disaster of 2008-9 appears front and center as one fourth of "educatedness" capabilities. Use of the model to assess career success, education curriculum and institution effectiveness, and assessment of biases and limitations in policy communities designing education institutions and initiatives are suggested. Additional data: A book "Are You Educated? 64 Capabilities of Highly Educated People" was derived from this article later (available at scribd.com) and a book "Are You Educated? EU, China, USA, Japan? 300 Capabilities from 5 Models of Educatedness" was also derived later on (and is available at scribd.com).

Liberal education has long been a fascination for scholars in a variety of disciplines and is closely associated with the idea of the educated person. Seen at one time as a matter for colleges and universities, over the years it has become central to the debate surrounding general education in high school and even the earlier grades. Yet so many and varied are the uses of the term 'liberal education' that the question arises of whether and how the idea is any longer a useful or helpful construct. In what way might it speak helpfully to educational challenges we face today? In what ways does it still speak helpfully to educational challenges we face today? In what ways might it be a guide as we search for a better way forward? These are the central questions that are addressed in this book. In doing so, the positions of three theorists—John Henry Newman, Mortimer J. Adler, and Jane Roland Martin—who have written about liberal education in a compelling way and from different perspectives are selected for close analysis. The analysis is built upon to fashion a new ideal of the educated person and a new theory of liberal education.
