inexpensively jettison the old, stupid structures and help kids take an
education rather than merely receive a schooling. We could encourage
the best qualities of youthfulness —curiosity, adventure, resilience, the
capacity for surprising insight—simply by being more flexible about
time, texts, and tests, by introducing kids to truly competent adults, and
by giving each student what autonomy he or she needs in order to take
a tisk every now and then."(Gatto 115)]]> 2023-07-14 01:44:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rubiehrt/jlvac4al2zj8smyp/wish/2644790770 rubiehrt https://padlet.com/rubiehrt/jlvac4al2zj8smyp/wish/2644790771 "Do we really need school? I don't mean education, just forced schooling: six classes a day, five days a week, nine months a year, for twelve years. Is this deadly routine really necessary? And if so, for what? Don't hide behind reading, writing, and arithmetic as a rationale, because 2 million happy homeschoolers have surely put that banal justification to rest."
