Like so many other American institutions, public education stands at a crossroad. It can either continue down a destructive path of conformity and standardization, or it can open up to the unique gifts that each student and teacher brings to the educative process. Pockets of Freedom champions the latter and proposes that educators, guided by their hearts' powerful intuition, create "pockets of freedom" within their teaching/learning environments to support the shift toward student-centered learning.

I am “that guy”. I know why they ran. I made them uncomfortable. I am the reason a lot of people don’t answer their phones. I have been fired, kicked out of school, in debt, separated, fired, evicted, in deeper debt, lost a business, kicked out of school again, fired, divorced, even deeper debt, kicked out of a band, labeled as “un-hirable”, closed another business, fired, unable to buy groceries, oh-my-goodness-how-far-into-debt-are-they-going-to-let-me-go… And now, I have a beautiful wife (who used to hate my guts), two great kids, a job I enjoy, a successful hobby, an ...

I was born at the time when autism was being spun off from schizophrenia into developmental delays. I did not fit the "as-of-then" markers to be diagnosed (issues with learning, disruptive behavior), so I went through the system without a diagnosis (or even knowing what autism was). This book is actually a presentation I give which goes over how the understanding of the autism spectrum has morphed and been redefined, and how individuals like me (diagnosed or not) experience the world, including developing masks and coping mechanisms, and of course, train wrecks. I am not aiming for pretty, ...

In this comparison of the Montessori birth-to-three practices with those of the tradition of Bhutan, as always I completely respect the culture and often benefit from traditional wisdom. In conversations with parents and grandparents around the world where I have explored these questions, it has been very satisfying to learn, together, just when the traditions are truly helpful, and when they might be an example of cutting off the end of the ham to fit the pan, or shaping the child to fit a pre-conceived plan. Montessori education is, and has always been, based on observation and continued ...

Viajar con Susan Stephenson a través de su libro "El Niño Universal, Guiado por la Naturaleza" fue un placer. Ver como las prácticas Montessori se aplican a todas las culturas en la actualidad, y remarcar lo mencionado por María Montessori con la vivencia de Susan en varios paises, acompañada de las elocuentes fotografías que lo demuestran, generan en mí gran entusiasmo para seguir mi caminar por esta senda. Gracias por ser una fuente de inspiración.—AMI Montessori teacher, Paraguay y Colombia
