Phases of Leadership Education

I thought I had a post about the phases of leadership education, but can't find it right now. So, I'm posting a short definition of each phase. Throughout the next few days I plan to have individual posts on each phase.

Core Phase - A time when kids develop a core foundation for all future learning and service. Includes character development and work ethic. Occurs first in educating our children

Love of Learning Phase- Those years when your children "dablle with learning", getting to know "what's out there". Provide ample opportunities to enjoy learning and to take responsibility for personal decisions.

Scholar Phase - Rigorous, disciplined survey of classic works and real-life application. Begins with a few hours daily study, building up to eight or more hours of self-directed study. Includes group discussion of classic works and review original works of students.
