Classical Stages of Learning and Growth

It is good to understand the essentials of a classical pedagogy, versus modern approaches to education. While classical educators use modern tools like technology to enhance learning, we keep our eyes fixed on the end goal: application of knowledge to express truth in the light of wisdom.  To reach these goals, we begin with the stage of Grammar, develop Logic, and finally acquire the skills of Rhetoric.  This image helps to depict the classical way to educate a child. We believe learning occurs in stages and in a fixed order. This model suits the dignity of the human person like no other.
