The View from Darien

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the detrimental effects of classifying students by their literary understanding, Gutteridge critiques the traditional educational approach that often leads to a one-size-fits-all curriculum. He highlights the need for tailored programs that cater to diverse learning styles and developmental stages, rather than diluted academic offerings. By examining various experimental programs, he advocates for an inclusive teaching system that allows all students, regardless of their reading abilities, to engage with and appreciate fine literature, fostering a richer learning experience.
