Student disengagement from school is a trending concern, and many
schools have turned their attention to independent study programmes
as a way to nurture student motivation and creativity. But where to
begin? Geraldine Woods offers a practical, step-by-step guide based
on her experience designing and directing the much-admired
independent study programme at the Horace Mann School. Under the
supervision of teachers, students embark on a remarkable variety of
projects and become teachers themselves, conducting seminars with
their peers along the way to preparing their final product-which
could as easily be an interactive website or musical composition as
a research paper. Woods' book details the nuts and bolts of the
approach and shows how to customise it for a variety of age groups,
budgets and curricular requirements. It is a gift to all
educators-including homeschooling parents-who want to give students
the freedom to pursue their interests.
