The impact of Qwisp
Qwisp offers a universal design for a global basic education where the following educational values are integral to the concept
Eco-Humanity
Working with Qwisp® , children will learn as integrated components of a connected and interdependent web of nature and humanity, where they have a role, and where they, and all life, give and receive sustainability.
It teaches from a place of human equality and a place of humble respect for our planet – all on a global scale. It teaches connection and inter-dependence between equals who are beholden to their natural resources.
It teaches equality from a natural perspective on a simple but profound level from a young age.
Humanitarian
The design of the Qwisp Map creates a learning philosophy of mindfulness and compassion, towards self, others, and the planet as a whole.
Globally we are inextricably linked to our environments and to each other. Different environments have created different cultures, but our essential needs bring us to one level of simple equality.
Children can learn how taking care of others means taking care of themselves and vice versa.
It becomes clear that good ethics are synonymous with survival and not a disconnected issue requiring isolated self-discipline.
in the end, Qwisp is a moral compass.
Science
Qwisp® starts the learner's journey into science with what they can see and touch in their environment.
Then, through deconstruction, moves the learner systematically into the building blocks and complexities of our planets structure. They will be led into the depths of science seamlessly without any preconceived fears or trepidation.
Through this process, the learner will steadily become aware that the concrete matter they started with is a construct of many patterns of particles that shuffle and interconnect. They will later easily recognize that life is made up of endless patterns and cycles.
They will learn how to use these constructs to further their knowledge, make deductions, draw conclusions and solve problems. This awareness is crucial to sustainability.
Spontaneous
Mind Energies
Engaging spontaneous energies (curiosity, creativity, intuition, instinct and more) into the learning process, gives these very personal human qualities their rightful place in learning. They create an interactive relationship of give and take between the learner and learning, boosting self-esteem, and allowing the learner to feel acknowledged for who they are in the classroom.They are a direct expression of our inner beings and therefore express our individuality, help to show us who we are, and play a strong role in problem-solving and innovation.
Inclusion
Dignity is a human right.
Education is a source of dignity.
With Qwisp every learner starts at the same place without any intellectual prejudices or requirements because they start with their humanity.
They can learn age appropriately at their own pace. No one needs to be left out or behind.
Qwisp has the potential to reach every person on the planet, and to offer them the opportunity to learn side-by side any other person on the planet.
Pedagogic
The Qwisp questions result in a learning activity that spirals more deeply and broadly into the topics as the learner progresses.
At the same time there is a looping action that enhances the continuity of the learning process.
The Qwisp pattern of questions optimizes the power of the innate questioning nature that we are born with. This questioning tool is easily applied to learning opportunities throughout our lives.
Early Learning
Brain development starts before birth and builds upon itself through multiplying neurological connections that eventually link with each other in ever more complex ways.
Qwisp mimics this activity through its learning trajectories, conspiring to create a strong knowledge base.
Early learning ensures well guided, robust, neurological development and therefore a strong and fertile base on which to build an individuals education.
Early learning is essential to later success.
Future-Proof
Above all, Qwisp offers hope for the future, is future-proof, and teaches on the cutting edge of new information.
Qwisp learners learn in a field of positive energy where there are no boundaries to their positive mind activities.
Structure
Qwisp has broad appeal because it provides a structure to build on and direction for learning and exploration.
These characteristics serve the learner as well as teachers and parents involved in home schooling.
Qwisp provides a learning compass and is the first step to educational independence.
