Read Doug Goodkin's ABC's of Education!
Calling all empassioned educators: Don't miss the opportunity to read Doug Goodkin's The ABC's of Education: A Primer for Schools to Come. The book is an alphabetic journey through 26 essential elements of any education designed to meet the genuine needs of children such as Art and Beauty, Stories, Truth, Understanding, Vulnerability, and Yes, to list a few. Doug gives numerous examples from his own teaching and offers a wonderfully human and welcoming means to look at the work we do and the meaning we can give it.
I started reading The ABC's on my way back from the Bangkok workshop and could hardly put it down, I was so engaged in the thought provoking and heartfelt ideas Doug presents. It is an inspired work by a gifted educator whose main focus is always on the kids first. For a boost of morale, a breath of fresh air, an energizing take on your day to day, give yourself the gift of reading and savoring this book.
Best regards,
Sherri Spelic
