Turning Points: 35 Visionaries in Education Tell Their Own Stories

Turning Points: 35 Visionaries in Education Tell Their Own Stories (Hardcover)

AERO members have been waiting for this for over a year! The final version of Turning Points, now in hardcover and with eight additional essays is now ready–just in time for the AERO conference! A major publicity firm is doing promotion! Look at this introduction from Alfie Kohn as featured in Education Week:

 ”The [educators] we’re looking for are those who say, “I want to work to change this system so others will be spared what was done to me.” They have the compassion and the courage to shake up the status quo and denounce cruel traditions. They’ve mastered the art of negative learning and developed a commitment to making the world, or at least whatever part of it they come to inhabit, a better place than it was before they got there.”
Alfie Kohn
