| ♥♥♥♥♥ | An inspirational look into the purpose of education |
| Good Will Hunting is a movie that touches on a number of particularly interesting themes in education and learning, and makes a profound statement about what it means to be accomplished.
Robin Williams' character eschewed the path of ivory-tower academic achievement at MIT to live out his life to the fullest - experiencing both great love and great loss, while his college roommate goes on to win some of the most prestigious awards in mathematics and become a full professor at MIT. This contrast is a recurring theme in the movie, and of particular interest to me, because it is clear that Williams' character has learned deep truths about life by taking chances his roommate refused to take. This life-affirming movie leaves us with a new understanding of the difference between being academically trained, and the perspectives that can only be gained from authentic experience. |
