Learning all the time

Rob Paterson posted a link to a great short documentary about a Sudbury Valley type school in Maryland called Fairhaven.   Sudbury Valley schools are democratically run and non-coercive.   In our Supported Homelaerning Program here on Bowen Island, we use many of the same principles and we operate under many of the same assumptions that these kids are expressing in the video.

I love the last comment, that this kind of learning prepares a kid for living and learning within a worldof chaos, which is what the real world is actually like.
