Our Philosophy
It is natural that we look for efficiency in life, including in education. While we desire for an education that helps children learn facts in a short time and also make them smarter and creative, the schools mostly educate them about facts. One exception is mathematics, in which we use pattern recognition to teach numbers to children. For example, using the basic numbers 1 to 10, we explain higher numbers, 100, 200, ...1000 and 1000, 2000,...10,000 so on and so forth. Basically, the pattern repeats and as a result as soon as the children understand this concept, they are able to understand this logic. Unfortunately, current education systems, use mathematical pattern recognition at most to learn the numbers and maximum extend it to addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
In fact, this pattern recognition could be effectively utilized to teach even higher level concepts. This will help children to become analytical and creative individuals. For example, Martin Cooper observed Alexander Graham Bell's telephone invention, Reginald ability to send human voice through radio waves, arrangement of radio towers in a hexagonal pattern by Young and finally Richard and Joel wireless communications using a series of cells. He could force a pattern and connectivity between these inventions and the result is invention of cell phones and a revolution in communication. In fact, Several great genius like Newton, Ramanujam, Feyman, Pythagoras, Arya Bhatta used the pattern recognition for higher application, which others fail to notice.
Not only technological and scientific discoverers used pattern recognition but also other pioneers use connectivity for their creative talents in the fields of arts, music, economics and philosophy.
It is clear that the brain grows rapidly for the first five years of human development. At the age five, the brain reaches to 90% of its total size and the growth completes by age twenty.
Therefore, exposing child to a special education system that enhances connectivity and pattern recognition before the age of five will have a tremendous influence on the intelligence and creativity. Indeed, Montessori education system revolutionized primary education by emphasizing manual dexterity and pattern recognition in the early age of children.
Therefore, if we teach our children pattern recognition similar to mathematics, the children will easily grasp abstract concepts in sciences, arts, philosophy using a simple pattern method?. Most importantly, we should use a pattern, which child is aware and capable of understanding and interpreting it beyond. Through research, we developed a pattern to be used as a reference for children to connect all the information using their hands along with the simple world, which they experience day to day including water, soil, food, air and fire. Since, these are the basic five elements, which constitute our earth; we call this as a UNI5 education system. This lays the strong basic foundation for pattern recognition.
How difficult is it to learn the Uni5 pattern recognition?
It is as hard as a child learning 1 to 10 number patterns. However, once the pattern is understood it is easy to connect other information with the pattern just by using five fingers.
