Ämnen: Onlineresurser: I: Sammanfattning: While the number of homeschoolers among all demographics, in Australia and elsewhere, is growing, it is homeschooling teachers who represent the biggest change. Teachers have a unique relationship with schools and represent a marked shift in attitudes to school, as canaries in the coalmine. This book examines the reasons teachers choose to homeschool their children. It was in the individual stories of our participant teachers that a story of schools' failure to meet students' needs was found. This book challenges anyone interested in the future of education to consider the role of homeschooling in changing education for the twenty-first century.
