Harness the Power of Active Learning 

An exploration of the intricate world of formal education that will forever change how you think about your child’s school. From Jonas Koblin, creator of the popular educational YouTube channel Sprouts.

“A fantastic guide for one of the most important decisions we can make: choosing the right school for a child.” —Barbara Oakley, PhD, author of A Mind for Numbers

The Unschooler’s Educational Dictionary is an unconventional guide that challenges traditional schooling norms, offering fresh insights grounded in learning science and child development theory—delivered with a delightful dose of wit, sarcasm, and captivating illustrations by Pascal Gaggelli.

Part One: Drawing from his own experiences as a truant turned serial entrepreneur, Koblin dissects all major learning theories and uncovers the unintended consequences of outdated educational methods. With thought-provoking and often humorous definitions like:

"Homework, n. A regular exercise that pushes privileged kids ahead of those from broken homes."

He invites readers to question why we teach children the way we do. This section is not just informative but also highly engaging, making you think, laugh, and reflect on the current state of education.

Part Two: Transitioning from critique to solution, the book provides a comprehensive guide to emerging education models. Explore a variety of innovative approaches such as Montessori, Waldorf, Reggio Emilia, Microschools, International Baccalaureate programs, and Unschooling. Each model is presented clearly, offering valuable insights for parents deciding on the best educational path for their child.

The book concludes with a practical checklist of essential questions to ask when choosing a school, empowering you to make informed decisions that align with your child’s needs and your educational values.
