Description
In Freedom to Learn, Will Richardson explores the disconnect between the effortless way people learn on their own and the restricted learning that happens in schools. Richardson expresses the need to reconceptualize learning in school and details how traditional school structures strip students of their control over the learning process. Although the 21st century has seen vast advances in access to the Internet and technology toolswhich can connect students and teachers to more information, knowledge, and experts than everschools continue to form education around antiquated 19th and 20th century techniques. The freedom to learn that students apply outside of school is left untapped in the classroom, leaving students feeling unengaged and uncreative in their education. If educators bring more freedom to learn to the classroom, engaging learners with the knowledge that isn't exercised in schools, teachers will better prepare them for success in their lives.
