Project Wisdom is one minute of daily character-building instruction and motivation. The program builds character by teaching students to take responsibility for their choices and actions, builds self-esteem by motivating them to be the best they can be, and builds a greater sense of community in school by inspiring students to honor one anther's differences and contribute to the world around them.
Project Wisdom's Objectives:
* To encourage students to take responsibility for their choices and actions.
* To teach tolerance and understanding of different races, cultures, and religions.
* To place role models before students by quoting individuals who have contributed to humanity in a constructive way.
* To teach students to think by asking them questions that require reflection and inner searching.
* To teach students that wisdom can be found in ethnic groups around the world.
* To counteract the negativity in the world with positive thoughts.
