Listen "Moralists with Donald Clark"
Episode Synopsis
Learning has always had a moral dimension. In pre-enlightenment times religion played a big role in deciding what and how people should learn, but by the 20th Century much of that influence had waned, and thinkers began to explore the ethical bases of learning in different ways. This episode covers a group of thinkers who explored the moral dimension of learning within different cultural contexts, and the increasing role of communications technology in those debates. 00:58 - Introducing the Moralists 6:52 - Abraham Maslow (1908 - 1970) 16:54 - Lawrence Kohlberg (1927 - 1987) 27:51 - Mamie and Kenneth Clark (1917 - 1983) 35:05 - Jane Roland Martin (1929- ) 40:19 - Herbert Marshall McLuhan (1911 - 1980) 50:46 - Neil Postman (1931-2003) 59:26 - Summing up The Blog that started it all: http://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/2020/08/100-learning-theorists-2500-years-of.html Maslow bit.ly/2TAzb8z Kohlberg bit.ly/2wOWEK8 Clarks bit.ly/3xupR75 Martin bit.ly/38F18jN McLuhan bit.ly/2IGJamx Postman bit.ly/33g9Kg0 Contact Donald Twitter: @DonaldClark LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donald-clark-04553022/ Blog: http://donaldclarkplanb.blogspot.com/ Contact John Helmer Twitter: @johnhelmer LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhelmer/ Website: http://johnhelmerconsulting.com/ Download the new white paper from Learning Pool written by John Helmer & Ben Betts – Suite Dreams: The Past, Present and Future of Learning Systems https://learningpool.com/suite-dreams/
