@matbury @gerard_mazza has plenty of people learning from those with more expertise. It's not all discovery learning.

I am going to say Hi again in hopes people find me. I really would like to rebuild my online community. I have 4 kids of my own and facilitate for another 26 who attend the I co-founded with friends. Children are people.

I love hearing from other people navigating this culturally weird and awesome way of being in relationship with children and one another.

My 15 year old wrote an Ode to her bestie cousin, and I am still laughing. Just a magnificent stream of inside jokes she turned into a clever poem. I wish she would allow me to share it!

@matbury @gerard_mazza as Mazza already said and for me too, it's about consent. So is not about lack of guidance or instruction. Young people can and do choose to seek out that guidance and instruction.

@matbury but this study doesn't take into account where the motivation is located for the students. Are those students learning Spanish just for the research or did they choose to and did they get to choose the method as they would in ? I wish there were more studies where students get real decision making power/responsibility for their learning. Not just 'choices' amongst some predetermined few. Also wonder how much metalearning they get from doing that over the longterm.

Some kid usually gets curious & joins me as an assistant. My cofacilitator is queen of crafts, so I’m sure she has some messy holiday crafting up her sleeve. And there’s usually a group that wants to walk to the corner store for junk food. Another ordinary day of .

Today’s adventures mostly involve driving the 2 teens for me. 15yo needs rides to high school (a thing unschoolers sometimes choose to do!) & gymnastics. The other needs rides to & from class at community college. Somewhere in there I need groceries. The younger two will mostly take it easy doing their own things at home. Lots of device play with friends I’m sure. Just another extraordinary ordinary day of

@HIH_Homeschool @orbifx @Liveotherwise I'd like somewhere to connect with other people, bit of activism for HE e.g., support, ideas, local community sharing maybe eventually, place for starting community projects, talking consent in education and reimagining education, raising awareness of HE (myth busting) with non HEers, alternative options to school, , networking and getting excited about in person events to share stories and inspiration.
