Each meeting was approxi- mately two and one-half hours long. They began with a social and nourishment period after which time was taken to prac- tice mental and physical relax- ation. Once the lectures began son Planning On the last session, Mr. Gilli- land asked the participants to design their own lesson, each in support of the theme CELE- BRATIONH. Many ideas and theories, such as the process of exposing people to the mysterious in themselves and then getting out of the way so you don't get run over, were taken from The Aquarian Conspiracy by Marilyn Ferguson. I attended a seminar during the summer that was sponsored by the LA County Office of Education There they taught about New Age Learning said Mr Gilliland The act1v1t1es of the seminars were almed to help teachers with intellectually passive stu dents by exposing the human ity of their teachers Faculty members of the Wal nut School District that did at tend felt they got a lot out of the workshop I feel I have some fruitful and new ideas I would like to implement this year with my classes, said Mrs. Alice OKeeffe. It was a shame more teachers didn't get involved. I was very pleased with the response, interest, and myself, said Mr. Gilliland. I believe it was a successf' Q A ALL PARTICIPATE in the activ- ity to help enhance the lecture. This activity was to show how messages are relayed in the brain. W
