Beyond School

More education. Less schooliness.

Daily Diigo: John Taylor Gatto Essays on School Reform

without commentsPrint This Post Print This Post

Gatto was New York Teacher of the Year in the not-so-distant past. I love his fierce, no-holds-barred diagnosis of the sickness of modern American education and educators. I discovered his writings when I started this blog in January, and quoted him on my third-ever post. I’m re-visiting him now, because his vision offers many a corrective to many a blind spot among proponents of both “School 1.0″ and “School 2.0.” I can’t recommend him highly enough.
