We are living at a time when loud voices from inside and outside the profession are telling teachers and school leaders 'this' is the way education should be done. This is how you should lead a school. This is how you should manage a class. This is how children should learn. This is what you should do to make children behave. These messages are given as if there is only one way to achieve these things their way.

However, with decades of experience working in all types of school around the globe, the many associates of Independent Thinking know there is always another way.

This book is for educators everywhere who are hearing these loud voices yet who know that children deserve something better. Full of inspiration and ideas for how to achieve just that, There is Another Way is a call to action to swim against the tide and reclaim the heart of education.

All of the royalties from sales of this book will go to the Big i Foundation.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    “1620: A Critical Response to the 1619 Project” by Peter W. Wood offers a thorough critique of The New York Times’ 1619 Project. Wood challenges the project’s central thesis, which claims that slavery is the true foundation of the United States, starting with the arrival of enslaved Africans in 1619. The book examines the historical context of slavery, the American Revolution, and the tensions that arose between the North and South. Wood emphasizes the importance of presenting a balanced history that incorporates both the struggles and ideals of American liberty and justice, rather than solely focusing on racial oppression.

    From the author of Peter Pan: 
     
    Lord Loam, a British peer, considers class divisions to be artificial. He promotes his views during tea-parties where servants mingle with his aristocratic guests, to the embarrassment of all. Crichton, his butler, particularly disapproves of this. 
     
    Loam, his family, a maid, and Crichton are shipwrecked on a deserted tropical island. The resourceful Crichton is the only one of the party with any practical knowledge. Eventually, social roles are reversed, and Crichton becomes the governor. (Intro from Wikipedia & TriciaG)
