My friend Sonya is full of wisdom!

My friend Sonya Haskins wrote the book for my giveaway, "Homeschooling for the Rest of Us." Today, as her Facebook status she put this:

Education is not the ability to memorize something and correctly answer true/false or multiple choice questions on the topic. When someone TRULY learns something, they UNDERSTAND it to the point that they have the ability to discuss it, describe it, or otherwise share the information with someone else as if they themselves had been transformed into the "teacher."
