Redesigning Education: A New Paradigm for Success

In 'Redesigning Education: A New Paradigm for Success,' author Frank 'Bud' O'Lery presents a compelling exploration of the challenges facing humanity in the modern era. Drawing parallels to the metaphorical 'Four Horsemen of Apocalypse,' O'Lery delves into the pressing issues of overcrowding, authoritarianism, greed, and environmental crises. Urging immediate action, he proposes the establishment of Educational Oases as safe havens for humanity, fostering critical thinking, knowledge, and interpersonal skills. The book envisions these Oases as fortresses of enlightenment, safeguarding arts, knowledge, and the best of human values. O'Lery contends that survival in the face of global challenges necessitates a commitment to logic, evidence, and the sanctity of life. Drawing inspiration from the concept of 'the shining city on the hill,' the author advocates for a new educational paradigm that addresses societal flaws and cultivates a foundation for future generations. 'Redesigning Education' serves as both a discussion and a plan of action, providing a roadmap for navigating troubled times and reshaping the future of humanity.
