I love what he has to say. I would like to see a nice fusion of scholastic/real life, so teaching maths, music, art, language and literature, vocational stuff all with continual reference to real life contexts.
And I would really love to see the gag on sex lifted. Sex and intimacy need to be treated as normal, not illicit...I mean, it's how we all get here and it's become a real elephant in the room!!
These are just my initial thoughts, I have no pedagogical expertise and I'm just thinking of the education I'd like DS to get...and that's a while off, for now.
I love the article and it gets the thinking ball rolling, no?
