Introduction to Alternative Education

Independent Study High Schools: A Growing Alternative in California
Vanessa Barrat & BethAnn Berliner
This workshop will describe for the first time California’s 231 independent study high schools, alternative schools with 75% or more of grades 9-12 students enrolled in full-time independent study. It will present information about their missions and educational philosophies, enrollment trends since 2001, and characteristics of schools, teachers, and students.

From Post-Modern Schooling to Intergral Education
David Marshak
The Spiral Dynamics model of the evolution of human consciousness offers profound insights into the ways that we educate young people. In this workshop we’ll explore two forms of human consciousness at the progressive edge of our culture, post-modern and integral, and consider which kinds of education (i.e., Sudbury Valley, Montessori, unschooling) fit into which form of consciousness, why this is so, and what this means.
