Teaching the Whole Class Book

Dated in many ways, but timeless in others. Teenagers still continue to push boundaries, and faculty members are still tired and not always the "in loco parentis" parents expect. Kids still slip through the cracks or are overlooked. Although new technologies enable parents to be more in touch with their kids than back n my prep school days, this collection of essays still provides a cautionary tale about boarding school life, even more than 20 years after publication.

However, I'd love to know more about the way these essays were written. They seem quite intellectual and informed by theory for unscripted essays written by non scholars and recent highschool and college graduates, even extremely well-educated ones.
