Education: what education? Teachers who can't.

Last night my wife complained to me: "Ainan's grammar is no good."

This was a little bit of a surprise to me but, sure enough, there on the book in front of her, crafted in Ainan's handwriting, were the red corrective markings of his teacher.

Curious, I took the book from her and had a look at what the teacher had written. As I read, I found myself unable to understand her use of tense. She had "corrected" his work, which had all been written in the past tense, into a nonsensical mixture of present and past perfect, which in the context had no meaning at all. Quite simply, the teacher was writing rubbish. It was not Ainan Celeste Cawley whose grammar was dodgy, it was his teacher's.

If I had not already become tired of the state of education in the world, I would have been angry at this. How can a child learn when the teacher does not know? This is a universal problem for all children, everywhere: if your teacher is ignorant, so, too, will you be. However, the problem is more severe for gifted children and, in particular, prodigies, or child geniuses. For they may know more than their teacher already. The teacher is, therefore, clearly unable to teach the student anything, which, in itself is of concern - but there is a greater concern, for if the teacher knows less than the student, and "corrects" work that is actually correct, in every way, already, then the teacher is creating confusion in the student. The teacher is teaching the student to be as ignorant as the teacher is.

Ainan is already bored by the lack of stimulation at school - am I to tell him too that his teacher doesn't know what she is talking about? I didn't...for now: but perhaps I should, for otherwise I give her the power not to teach him, but unteach him. Without a proper perspective on the situation, she may succeed in confusing him as to what English grammar is all about. I wonder what his other teachers may be instilling in him: more ignorance?

The Gifted Community: togetherness is all.

We live in a competitive world. We are trained from an early age to compete, compete, compete. Yet, what effect does this have? We lose - or never learn - the ability to co-operate. That is sad for without togetherness we are much less than we could be.

Why do I speak of this matter? Well, it pertains, most tellingly, to the gifted, to geniuses, to prodigies and even to savants, few though they are. No-one is more alone than the brightest child in the school. If, that is, they are truly much brighter than the others. You see, the brighter a child is, the fewer are their peers - and for the very bright indeed, they may have NO peers in their acquaintance at all. If your gift is at the level of one in a thousand, you may well be the only person in your school at that level. If your gift is at one in ten thousand, it is almost certain that this is the lonely situation. For those whose gift is rarer still, it is likely that they will never meet a peer in their entire lifetimes. That is truly tragic. No wonder the gifted tend to be introverted - for what choice do they have but a watchful silence? That was my way as a child, and I am much the same as an adult: I have no peers to relate to, in my acquaintance. This is the way of life of many gifted people, geniuses or otherwise.

So, what are we to do? First of all, anyone who is moderately gifted, highly gifted, exceptionally gifted, profoundly gifted, academically gifted, scientifically gifted, creatively gifted, athletically gifted, musically gifted, artistically gifted or indeed any other kind of giftedness I have not identified, should co-operate with, befriend and nurture all other gifted people of all kinds. Why is this so? Because any gift sets one apart - but it also gives you something in common with all other gifted people. You may be different in your difference, but you are alike in that you ARE different from the mass of Humanity.

Therefore, set aside competition and think of co-operation. How can you better the lives of the other variously gifted people you encounter in life? Being friends with them costs you nothing and gains something you may not have had before: a peer, in the one very important sense that they, too, are different, they too, are set apart. You may never find a peer with your gifts and interests, special abilities and personal gifts - but you may find a friend or companion who can share with you an understanding that only a gifted person can have: what it is like to be apart from the common stream of Humanity, what it is like to be different to your very core. In doing so, you will improve two lives: yours and theirs.

The Cawley Family, Singapore

This photo shows Valentine Cawley and his wife Syahidah Osman Cawley, along with their three sons, Ainan Celeste Cawley, 6, Fintan Nadym Cawley, 3 and Tiarnan Hasyl Cawley, just eight months.

In case you are wondering, I, Valentine, am of Irish origin, though born in London. Syahidah is Malay/Bugis and the children, therefore, are Eurasian.

Scientific Child Prodigy - a guide

Welcome to those who are new to Scientific Child Prodigy.

It has come to my attention that some site visitors are not familiar with Ainan's story. Ainan is a prodigious young scientist. He has demonstrated this in public examinations and is the youngest person ever to have passed an O level, as verified by the Singapore Book of Records. He is at work on higher level material, presently. Indeed he has been a student of Chemistry, at Singapore Polytechnic, for over a year.

At 7 years old, Ainan was accepted into the GEP, Gifted Education Programme, after passing all their tests. They advanced him about a decade in Chemistry by placing him in classes at Raffles College and other institutions. However, the GEP had a different vision for Ainan than us. They wanted to focus on theoretical education, whereas Ainan was more interested in experimental Chemistry. We were doing all the theoretical work he needed at home. Their offer was, therefore, redundant. Thus, within a year we gave up working with the GEP. It was our decision and a good one.

I feel it necessary to point this out because some people don't take the time to find out the facts. This has led to misunderstandings by them. I hope that this clarifies matters for those who have shown they need that clarification. Thanks.

You may be looking for our IMDb listings. IMDB is the Internet Movie Database for film and tv professionals. If you would like to look at my IMDb listing for which another fifteen credits are to be uploaded, (which will probably take several months before they are accepted) please go to: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3438598/ As I write, the listing is new and brief - however, by the time you read this it might have a dozen or a score of credits...so please do take a look. My son, Ainan Celeste Cawley, also has an IMDb listing. His is found at: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3305973/ My wife, Syahidah Osman Cawley, has a listing as well. Hers is found at: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3463926/

Child prodigy is a little understood and little studied phenomenon. The academic authorities speak with little actual knowledge of the breed. So who is best to consult on the matter?

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/11/authority-on-child-prodigy.html

Some famous people attack child prodigy, using poorly constructed arguments, and weak reasoning. It is one element of the anti-gifted agenda that is found in many places. Here is my refutation of Malcolm Gladwell's recent attack on child prodigy:

Tiarnan Hasyl Cawley is my nine month old son. He speaks at the most surprising moments, his little voice emerging from silence, without warning, as if to say: "Surprise!" Here I write of one such surprise:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/11/words-of-love-on-tiarnans-tongue.html

All gifted children are special. Sometimes we are led to believe that they are just like the other gifted children. Not so. Here I speak of a fallacy in the way gifted children are viewed by psychologists:

Creativity is the foundation of genius, but is it appreciated in the education system?

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/11/problem-of-creativity-examinations.html

Genius is a mysterious and wonderful human attribute. It is the rarest of gifts - but is it correlated with IQ? Here Rembrandt is used as an example, to examine the issue:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/11/was-rembrandt-genius.html

Genius is allied to social isolation and solitude. Are geniuses solitary figures? Here is my view on genius:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/12/creative-genius-and-social-isolation.html

Leonardo Da Vinci may well be the greatest Universal Genius of all time. Here are his last words:

Ainan is replete with rare knowledge - and beautiful thoughts about it. Astronomy is one of his interests. Here is Ainan on our Sun and its hidden nature:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/12/song-of-sun-celestial-music.html

Fintan Nadym Cawley, three, is a boy of personal gifts. Here is a tale of how he took the role of a motivational speaker, one day, showing that he has social gifts that evidence emotional intelligence at work:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/12/youngest-motivational-speaker-in-world.html

Tiarnan is an athletic baby. Here I write of another milestone in his motor development: walking downstairs unassisted - and an acrobatic feat that he does with a wall, a sofa and a split-level apartment:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/12/tiarnan-walks-downstairs-unassisted.html

Ainan Celeste Cawley, seven years, and two weeks, is a scientific child prodigy, with a liking of designing chemicals: here I speak of a recent molecular design:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/12/molecular-designer-chemical-genius-at.html

Tiarnan Hasyl Cawley is a ten month old toddler - he is also rather quick of hand and eye. Here I tell of one example of his quickness - and his poor taste in food:

http://scientific-child-prodigy.blogspot.com/2006/12/fast-food-faster-baby-tiarnan.html

As babies grow, they gradually come to assert their own personalities. Here, Tiarnan shows that he knows what he wants and knows how to tell Daddy what to do:

IMDB is the Internet Movie Database for film and tv professionals. If you would like to look at my IMDb listing for which another fifteen credits are to be uploaded, (which may take several months to be accepted) please go to: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3438598/ As I write, the listing is new and brief - however, by the time you read this it might have a dozen or a score of credits...so please do take a look. My son, Ainan Celeste Cawley, also has an IMDb listing. His is found at: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3305973/ My wife, Syahidah Osman Cawley, has a listing as well. Hers is found at: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3463926/
