Radical Learning devotional.

This weblog is devoted to the exploration of radical ideas and practical experiments in education and learning. It stems from my own interest in alternative education, rooted in my undergraduate career at Hampshire College. Hampshire is an experimenting college in western Massachusetts of some repute: it lacks grades or tests, instead relying upon narrative evaluations and a heavy emphasis on writing/work in the field.

Some themes here will include ideas for high school and college instruction; broad critiques and reconstructive proposals for academia; experiments oriented around learning; theoretical concerns in education; etc. This is a loose effort, make use of it however you wish.
