Pan Horus? Have I missed the discovery of a new planet?
...experiential human interaction training
Huh?
You have me stumped with the planet, too.
Pan Horus is the real ruling planet of Taurus. It may or may not have been "discovered" yet.
"Experiential" is learning through experiencing, not classroom, not theorhetical. "Human interaction" is, well, interaction between humans. It focuses a lot on that learning=change (and that if you haven't changed your behavior, you haven't actually learned anything) and to know from feedback how our behavior affects others and experimenting with new behaviors (and learning what their effect is) and conflict resolution and leadership training and team building (group dynamics) and all sorts of airy fairy stuff like that. Group leaders are usually called "facilitators". I'm actually certified.
And it isn't without its usefulness. At least, I got a lot out of it, none of it related to the work I was doing that paid for that training. Esalen Institute is pretty famous for it.
Right after you left your comments yesterday, I got an e-mail with "Experiential Education!" in the subject line. I was totally confused. I thought maybe you'd passed my e-mail address on to somebody, but why then was it coming out of Alberta? I've never had e-mails from this company before. Strange coincidence. I'm assuming I got it because of my involvement with the city homeschooling network, but I can't say for sure on that, either.
Isn't that funny? I promise you, I did not send your e-mail to anyone! I did do a search on some of my old "trainers" though, and found one. I wrote him but who knows if he'll write back. He's with community development now.
