I want to use Emmerson quote about the baubles and how little kids can learn more by not going to school essentially. I want to have a guy come back as the reincarnation of Emmerson, and he comes back and tells people not to go to school, and that we should all go into the woods and become one with the woods. It 's going to be a story on what would happen if Emmerson came back to life.

  1. Its an intresting topic, its definentely original. I want to know how your going to do this, should be a challenge.

  2. Roger,

    I agree with Mason--this topic sounds interesting, but you don't really give much indication of how you're going to pursue it (in this too brief post--use this forum! It can be helpful to you!).

  4. Maybe if you were to explain or write about why you would take them out of school and REALLY have Emerson go into great detail about how you have to experience it rather than read about it in a text book.... if that even makes any sense.

  5. I'm curious as to how far this logic should go. Should we all abandon our lives and live in the forest, or are you just saying we should have a more nature-based education system. If it is the former, how well have you thought out a society as radically different than the one you live in? Excited to see where this goes.
