"idealistic philosophy. big picture. but i agree with a lot of it. it sparks my passion--child-centered, exploration/experience-based, core values, coming up with your goals before looking at state-mandated curriculum, etc.
i know a book is good if i'm taking lots of notes, tabbing lots of pages, and coming up with lots of ideas on the way. this book was all of that.
"In a country such as ours that is perennially focused on national control of education while simultaneously cutting funds, anyone would be lucky to have a teacher so hellbent on the real education Ayers outlines here."
