People who cannot be honest about their mistakes cannot learn from their mistakes. Learning is not a technical/objective process. Learning is a personal reflexive process in which the person learning is constantly reflecting in one way or another upon how that which is being learned reflects back upon the self conception and behavior of the student. People who are trapped in addictive/codependent patterns of thought and behavior are unable to reflect honestly upon who they are and who they are becoming, and so they cannot guide their own learning process in any coherent way. Teaching is not a technical/objective process; it is a reflexive process in which the success and/or failure of the student reflects in some way back upon the instructor, teacher or professor. Instructors, teachers and professors who are trapped in addictive/codependent patterns of thought and behavior are unable to reflect honestly upon who they are and how they relate to their students in their students' learning experiences; and so they cannot guide their own instructional process in any coherent way. In a liberal arts college students are to be liberated from that which inhibits them; ignorance, prejudice, addictions, codependence and collusions. Such liberation is often not welcomed and carefully avoided using all the tricks of the collusive games of mutual self deception which seem so natural to addicts and codependents. The educational process is a process of helping students to want to get beyond the dishonest games which they learned from their extended family and friends. Failing to take proper account of the nature of the process is part of the addictive process. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
