Here’s science speaker Samuel Arbesman, in an interview at the Kauffman Foundation, on why education doesn’t stop when you graduate. As he argues in his latest book, The Half-Life of Facts, the rapid increases in scientific discovery and technological innovation has turned facts from widely believed truths into temporary stances that are constantly changing. “You shouldn’t view your education as a done deal,” says Arbesman, offering that education is about, “being given the tools to think and understand the world” and not a one-time, definitive training ground.
