How do we recognize the 'wounds' caused by outdated schooling
policies? How do we heal them? In her provocative new book,
education writer and critic Kirsten Olson brings to light the
devastating consequences of an educational approach that values
conformity over creativity, flattens students' interests, and
dampens down differences among learners. Drawing on deeply
emotional stories, Olson shows that current institutional
structures do not produce the kinds of minds and thinking that
society really needs. Instead, the system tends to shame, disable,
and bore many learners. Most importantly, she presents the
experiences of wounded learners who have healed and shows what
teachers, parents, and students can do right now to help themselves
stay healthy.
