How Children Learn by John C. Holt

5.0

Profound book. Recommended by Austin Kleon. The point that stuck with me most is that people/children learn from tapping into a deep-rooted urge to find meaning. If along the way they need to understand certain things to get more meaning, that learning will be deep and true.

Trust kids to learn. Our school system in general teaches by force because we don't trust kids to do it themselves.
