I've been researching home schooling lately, and what this article seems to be describing is most often called [invited learning]?. Is there a significant difference between the two concepts? --STG Is it me, or is there an implication that TCS=letting them make the decisions? Sorry, but kids don't really have that capacity while in grammar school, at least, do they? I was under the impression that you give kids a choice to help them decide, e.g., Would you like milk or Orange juice -- NOT, what do you want to drink? And does anybody else find it funny that anybody can home-school their kid (even somebody without even a high school education), but if you have a PhD, you still can't teach in most states without going back to school for a teaching certificate? (sorry -- personal pet peeve coming out here). Personally, I take kids a lot more seriously than I take most of their parents! JHK |
