Review # 1 was written on 2012-08-21 00:00:00 Lea Cloe This is such a fresh way of looking at educational objectives, and updates Bloom's taxonomy to make it more practical for the classroom.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-05-22 00:00:00 Cliff McDaniel This book challenged my views more than any book I've ever read. Illich's case for the need to deschool society is not only compelling it is transformative. As a person who has become highly critical of public schooling, I was already familiar with where he was going, but to abandon every type of institutional school system including free/democratic schools as well as universities seemed a bit much to me, until he went into detail about the repressiveness of such institutions and how we learn mostly everything we know outside of schooling. He suggests an alternative type of schooling which uses social networking to pair up people with similar interests to form apprenticeship style mentoring. For a book written in the 1970's. It feels like he is talking about something similar to facebook as a way of bringing people with similar interests together to build learning atmospheres. Interesting read.
