Evolving Consciousness/Cosmology / Part 2 / 1 credit
The online Waldorf Certificate Studies Program Course Evolving Consciousness/Cosmology concerns itself with basic and underlying principles of Waldorf Education. The knowledge and understanding of these principles is essential for anyone embarking on or deepening their study and ultimately their practical application of this teaching method based on the insights and teachings of Anthroposophy.
There are the following three fundamental principles.
1. The human being (the child and the adult alike) is not only a physical being but also a being of soul and spirit relating to soul and spirit realities.
2. The child in growing up recapitulates the development of consciousness of humanity and education needs to be tailored and moderated in such a way that it is truly age appropriate meaning relating to the developing consciousness of the child out of insights into the reality of the development of consciousness of humanity.
3. The Waldorf (or Steiner) Educator needs to be on a conscious path of self development, being at the same time a seeker of spiritual truth and a practitioner of a therapeutic and artistic teaching approach.
The courses Evolving Consciousness/Cosmology / Part 1 and Part 2 include an in-depth study of Rudolf Steiner's fundamental work: An Outline of Esoteric Science.
