Sun Tzu's Art of Teaching and Learning

"Who would have thought that after such a long time, initiated by a chance encounter in Eastern China, a new chapter in the life history of General Sun Tzu would be revealed to the world? Impossible! said esteemed scholars of history. Ridiculous! offered the most learned men and women of ancient literature. Liar! cried those encumbered with stilted imagination and even less understanding of the nature of the ancient world. It’s as if someone discovered the long lost tomb of Genghis Kahn, and produced his wolf’s head sword in all its ancient glory as proof, only to be ridiculed and accused of archeological sophistry of the crudest and most vile sort. No matter. I know what I know and after reading this text, which rings so true with the wisdom of the great General, you will know it too. I must tell you how it came to pass."

Thus begins Sun Tzu's Art of Teaching and Learning. Part historical fiction, part educational philosophy, it's a whole year's worth of professional development in 33 pages!
