Like so many other American institutions, public education stands at a crossroad. It can either continue down a destructive path of conformity and standardization, or it can open up to the unique gifts that each student and teacher bring to the educative process. Pockets of Freedom champions the latter and proposes that educators, guided by their hearts' powerful intuition, create pockets of freedom within their teaching/learning environments to support the shift toward student-centered learning. In this book, three teachers, spanning a range from pre-school through the university level, share stories that illuminate the process of creating freedom spaces within their classrooms, supporting their goal of awakening self-guided learning in all their students. Despite teaching, for the most part within traditional public institutions, they succeeded. And now you can learn how by reading their stories.
