The most powerful new ideas in education are coming from the families that have given up on schools. From his experience with homeschoolers and unschoolers, education guru Clark Aldrich distills a revolutionary manifesto of 55 core ''rules'' that reboots our vision of childhood education and the role of schools. The include: ? Learn to be; learn to do; learn to know. ? Tests don't work. Get over it. Move on. ? What a person learns in a classroom is how to be a person in a classroom. ? Animals are better than books about animals. ? Internships, apprenticeships, and interesting jobs beat term papers, textbooks, and tests. ? The only sustainable answer to the global education challenge is a diversity of approaches. This accessible book provides you with a path forward, whether you're a parent or teacher, a school administrator, or a national policy decision maker.
