Plato in Meno

AEE 595 (AEE 635) is designed to help you become a better teacher of agriculture. We will pursue a clearer understanding of the profession of education, and advanced methods for teaching. Our study will begin with the processes of learning, and end with measures of assessment of learning. In between, we will discuss social, environmental, and political factors that influence teaching. |

The engraving above depicts a prince to whom Demeter, the Greek goddess of the Earth, assigned the duty of teaching agriculture to the Greeks. He is shown with Demeter (Ceres is the Roman equivalent god) who is holding grain stalks, and traveling in a wheeled and winged chair. Teaching agriculture today is a bit more difficult.
