OverviewPoint of Departure offers a practical metacognitive and transformational learning strategy for human surviving and thriving. Using five foundational and interactive Indigenous worldview beliefs that contrast sharply with our dominant worldview ones, everyone can reclaim the original instructions for living on Earth. Without the resulting change in consciousness that can emerge from this learning approach, no modern technologies can save us. The five foundational Indigenous precepts relate to a radically different understanding about: (1) Trance-based learning (2) Courage and Fearlessness (3) Community Oriented Self-Authorship (4) Sacred Communications (5) Nature as Ultimate Teacher Full Product DetailsAuthor: Donald Trent JacobsPublisher: Emerald Publishing Inc Imprint: Information Age Publishing Dimensions: Width: 15.60cm , Height: 1.00cm , Length: 23.40cm Weight: 0.270kg ISBN: 9781681235905ISBN 10: 1681235900 Pages: 186 Publication Date: 01 July 2016 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Manufactured on demand We will order this item for you from a manufactured on demand supplier.
