      Charter schools are an attempt to address Illich's vision, but these are often more focused on schooling and less a trasformation of schools
  • I intend to show that the inverse of school is possible: that we can depend on self-motivated learning instead of employing teachers to bribe or compel the student to find the time and the will to learn; that we can provide the learner with new links to the world instead of continuing to funnel all educational programs through the teacher.
  • schools are fundamentally alike in all countries, be they fascist, democratic or socialist, big or small, rich or poor.

  • his identity of the school system forces us to recognize the profound world-wide identity of myth, mode of production, and method of social control, despite the great variety of mythologies in which the myth finds expression.
  • The alternative to dependence on schools is not the use of public resources for some new device which "makes" people learn; rather it is the creation of a new style of educational relationship between man and his environment. To foster this style, attitudes toward growing up, the tools available for learning, and the quality and structure of daily life will have to change concurrently.

      Renee, This site seems to have lots of resources. I am looking for sites that my students can use independently. Since it goes from k-5, I can also find just the right level for everyone.

      The moral of many of the tales is that the biggest and strongest are often done in by the quicker and tricker.
