About this education title
The Teenage Liberation Handbook : How to Quit School and Get a Real Life and Education by Grace Llewellyn is a education title available to read on EtoBox.
Quit school and get a real education? It sounds like a recipe for disaster. As education becomes a burning issue for many parents, here comes a book which declares that school destroys and confuses the process of learning and that if you leave school it will change your life - for the better. Leaving school leads to real learning and meaningful work, while parents can get to know their kids better. Homeschooling is taking off in a big way, not only in the US but in much of Europe, and Grace Llewellyn presents it as a real alterative, with a useful resource guide to start you off. Full of stimulating, controversial and exhilarating ideas, this practical and inspirational book is a must for all teenagers who want to learn, but seriously question the educational system's ability to teach. It will enable them to: reclaim their natural ability to learn and teach others, design a personalized education, learn how other unschooled teenagers spend their time, make friends with their parents, find work opportunities, and go to college without going to school.
It is typically read by teachers and faculty preparing courses and curriculum.
