Five Big Questions about the Tricky Issue of Consciousness

A 6-week online workshop with Sydney Rudolf Steiner College

Each evening workshop will unpack one of these questions:

  1. What if people of the past saw the world differently from us? And how would we know?
  2. What does ‘evolving consciousness’ actually mean? And why is this concept central to Steiner philosophy?
  3. Do I really need to understand Steiner’s philosophy to teach in a Steiner School?
  4. Could myths and legends be more than just stories? What deeper secrets do they hold?
  5. What effect could computers have on our future consciousness? We don’t encourage their use in Steiner Education – do we need to rethink our stance on this?

If you have ever wondered about what you’ve read in Steiner works, or are involved in a Steiner school, or even just intrigued,  join us for our online workshops where we unpack some of the big questions about our past and how they shape the possibilities of our future development. Whether your interest is Steiner Education or Steiner philosophy, come and join in to the conversation.

This online course is led by Dr Fiona Campbell who has researched this topic for 25 years. Fiona has been a lecturer at Sydney Rudolf Steiner College since 1994 and combines her wealth of knowledge and experience in Anthroposophy and visual arts training with her studies about human consciousness and phenomenology.
