Synopsis
The essence of teaching and learning in Friends schools is explored by four different voices in this collection, perfect for exploration in full and/or departmental faculty meetings.
Friends schools are known to be learning communities centered around Quaker values. This publication from Friends Council emphasizes that the pedagogy in Friends schools – how we teach – is as valuable as what we teach.
The collection includes essays by Irene McHenry – Friends Council on Education, Jane Fremon – Princeton Friends School, Nancy Starmer – George School, and Friends educational consultant J. Harry Hammond.
