Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Is learning a natural ability that schools, colleges, and universities gradually stifle in individuals, replacing it with a learning dependency? Charles A. Wedemeyer stressed that learning is a natural, idiosyncratic, and continually renewable human trait and survival resource. It is not dependent upon teaching, schooling, or special environments, althoughâproperly usedâthese resources enhance learning. Learning at the Back Door examines this kind of learning and relates it to schooling, suggesting ways in which all learningâwhether traditional or non-traditionalâcan be encouraged and improved through new kinds of educational institutions and processes.
