Classical Geometry, Astronomy, Arithmetic, and Music | The Quadrivium | Martin Cothran, Tanya Charlton, Paul Schaeffer
About this episode
What is the quadrivium and how does it relate to classical education? If you've enjoyed our past conversations on the liberal arts, the trivium, and a close look at Christian homeschool education, this conversation is for you! Today we take an overview look at possibly the oldest learning curriculum in the world: The Quadrivium. Not only does a solid education need language arts to work, it needs the four pillars of geometry, astronomy, arithmetic, and music to work in a modern context. Why teach the Quadrivium? We're glad you asked. Hope you enjoy the show!
