Our Philosophy:
At Life Wealth S-Y-S-T-E-M S you will learn by doing. Each online activity/conference includes assignments that consist of work that a real professional would do. There are years of research that back this up, but most of us know this intuitively.
How do you learn to ride a bike, speak, to read, to write?
Learning-by-doing is not a new idea. For thousands of years people who have thought about education have noted that we learn by doing, not by being told. Why? Because we remember our own experiences much better than we remember things that were told to us. However, it has been quite difficult to implement learning by doing in a classroom. Computers are a different medium, more suited to doing. However, many e-learning courses haven't really understood how to use this medium well. They are trying to copy school. We don't think that methods employed in a classroom translate that well onto a computer. Classrooms weren't so wonderful anyhow. Look at movies in the first decade of the 1900's; they were pretty bad. Why? Because filmmakers were simply filming plays. Over the years, movies began to evolve. This is very similar to what is happening in e-learning. Many educators are still trying to paste lecture courses into an e-learning course, and, like the early movies, the results have not been good. We are offering a different experience, one more suited to this new medium.
Kevin K.Hemphill and his team have been perfecting the learning-by-doing experience for many years. Simply put, Hemphill and his team are in a different league. We hope you enjoy the resources we offer along the way to help create new experiences for you to build on and remember.
