Listen "Heading for Open Waters: A Reflection on the Purpose of School"
Episode Synopsis
Imagine your children waking each day, knowing what they are going to do and how they need to go about doing it. You've prepared them and the environment so well, they hum along in their work driven by curiosity and fueled by discovery. They tackle the “boring stuff” with patience and overcome challenges with optimism. They learn things you never even knew or may have forgotten. These are the characteristics of self-determined learners. Today we discuss the purpose and function of learning and how to let go of the edge of outdated conventional practices to swim in the waters of self-determined learning.
