#3 Revised: The Three In To One

 Wow! Having to combine three separate articles in to one is a bit challenging to me.  Two writings I have combined, but I have never done three.  Wikpedia has an article called “Age of Enlightenment” has a reason why science, rather than religion, should be used to decide how we perceive how human beings should live for the future to better ourselves.  It was a good article, but the RSA Animate were far more appealing because they showed visual learning, vocal learning, and perception of how something is or can possibly be.  Matthew Taylor states in his animate “21st Century Enlightenment” that education helps us to perceive things.  Really appealing to me was how he states that a person should “not buy a self-help book, but rather find happier friends.”  I liked how he stated that in an environment that encourages us to prosper and learn is far better than one that is bland and dismal.  Oh wait, this sounds more like what the gentleman Sir. Ken Robinson had stated in his animate called “Changing Education Paradigms”.  The animate thru Mr. Robinson had quite a bit of seriousness in his wording, and it had a good amount of comedy to keep your attention to it such as the ADHD plague mentioned in The United States that gets worse as you go farther towards the Atlantic Ocean via land.  He said how we should not dope our children up with medications, but should promote them in school, and not have as many outside influences to do such as the electronics like computers, numerous television stations to watch, and other like items.  Found to be neat was the word aesthetic. I have heard it before, but had not known the meaning.  I looked it up to see at full life potential according to the dictionary.  I got to see something I had never noticed.
