[INTRODUCTION]What is the best way to teach, or to learn? What subjects should children learn? How responsible are children? How much of a say should they have in what they do? How should schools be run in a democratic society? For most of us these questions must remain theoretical. We inherit an education system and we cannot play out our fantasies in the real world. (...)Occasionally a group of people, uninhibited by tradition, asks these questions -- and proposes radical new answers, in a "hothouse" setting for all of us to see. Such experiments are especially valuable in providing a completely fresh look at accepted doctrines, and helping us try new ones. In 1968 a unique experimental school was established in Framingham, Massachusetts. Sudbury Valley School, which is open to students ages 4 to 19, has pioneered a number of highly innovative practices. Its work has gained wide recognition, and it has the distinction of being the first such school ever to be fully accredited. #Individualism #Rare #BooksBooksBooks #instabooks #Autodidact #Vintage #Montessori #CoverArt #booksforsale #Education #SudburySchool #instaread #FreeSchoolMovement #Bookworm #Books #Bookstagram #DemocraticEducation #booksale #Scarce #DirectDemocracy #bibliophile #Pedagogy #SudburyValleySchool #CuttleboneBooks #bookcollecting #Antiquarian #DanielGreenberg #ExperimentalEducation #readersofinstagram #collectiblebooks
