Illich on the myths of schooling - 2 views

  •  
    I post this one as a counter to Mr Friedman, and as a guide toward where action research is needed: away from the built-in goals and failures of unchallenged schooling. It is a bit dated, but so is our approach. There's a chapter in one of his books entitled "Research by People" that I'll try to track down and see if it pertains.

Brown University Action research pamphlet - 0 views

    No doubt helped by the federal dollars they seem to receive, here is a nice pamphlet from the Northeast and Islands Regional Educational Laboratory At Brown University.

It also describes two action research projects, one at an elementary school in Lowell and the other at a middle school in Providence.

He designed it as an ongoing action-research project for his graduate degree. The narrative is easy to follow and good things happen.
