“The most important thing any teacher has to learn, not to be learned in any school of education I ever heard of, can be expressed in seven words: Learning is not the product of teaching. Learning is the product of the activity of learners” — education innovator John Holt in Growing Without Schooling magazine, no. 40 (1984). He also wrote, “No one is more truly helpless, more completely a victim, than he who can neither choose nor change nor escape his protectors” in Escape from Childhood (1974).
