But where to begin?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Geraldine Woods offers a practical, step-by-step guide based on her experience designing and directing the much-admired independent study program at the Horace Mann School. Under the supervision of teachers, students embark on a remarkable variety of projects and become teachers themselves, conducting seminars with their peers along the way to preparing their final product--which could as easily be an interactive website or musical composition as a research paper. Woods' book details the nuts and bolts of the approach and shows how to customize it for a variety of age groups, budgets, and curricular requirements. It is a gift to all educators--including homeschooling parents--who want to give students the freedom to pursue their interests.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Geraldine Woods\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1324019662\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781324019664\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e W.
