The Goal of Education and a Boy’s Love for Toilets

The goal of education is prepare students for the challenges of life (both professionally and personally). This noble view may seem best suited for primary and secondary education, but I believe it’s just as relevant for professional training. This video of a child’s passion for all things commode reminds me that another goal of teaching is to instill a love for learning. Dustin not only loves toilets, but he also wants to learn more about them. By the end of a course I want my students to be just as excited about green building and driven to continue their educational journeys.
