This paper looks at the influence of Theodore Sizer on progressive education. He is the founder of the Coalition of Essential Schools, a national network of innovative schools. Its central idea is that education works best when it does not impose a curricular framework foreign to the child, teaches for deeper understanding rather than shallow coverage, engages the child as co-worker and co-discoverer, and emphasizes projects and process rather than lectures and textbooks. Sizer is the most powerful advocate for this school of thought. 10.5 pgs. 15 f/c. 11b.
