This text is a call to action. The title Escape from Teaching may
sound a bit like an imperative. However, much of the recent
findings from educational and brain research, especially regarding
the potential benefits of informal and self-structured learning,
are never realized in educational practice. It is time to ask: What
did we really learn from all those years that we spent in
instructional and often insulting contexts? What have we got to
show from our formal education and what can we become as a result
of this experience? What do we forget in such contexts and did it
deprive us of our self-confidence and self-structuring skills? What
consequences are associated with seeking and testing can equip us
with permanent skills and abilities? How could educational
institutions change to become places for successful self-directed
skills development? And, how can we, as individuals and as a
society, develop the potential that rests within us all?
