My new blog: Unschooling Rules - Rediscovering the Truths about Childhood Learning That have been Obscured by Our Industrial Education Complex

I have created a new blog, called: Unschooling Rules

So far, I have topics such as:

• The future is portfolios, not transcripts
• Tests don't work. Get over it. Move on.
• Learn something because you need it or because you love it

These are all "first draft" thoughts (as if I have anything but!). My goal is not to advocate unschooling as an exclusive technique to replace schools, but more to surface the often unchallenged assumptions that our current industrial education model demands. This requires thinking of the furthest extreme alternative. I believe the evolution of schools means making deliberate, not just default, trade-offs.

Finally, of course, if you have any thoughts for future entries, please let me know. My thoughts are often the sand, not the pearl.
