Raywid, Mary Anne
Phi Delta Kappan, v73 n8 p631-33 Apr 1992
This article describes Dorothy Fadiman's prize-winning film "Why Do These Kids Love School?" as a documentary with many powerful lessons to teach. Inspired by her own daughter's joyous experiences at school, Fadiman filmed classroom activities at a progressive Menlo Park (California) school and eight other schools across the country that emphasize innovation, mutual respect, and enjoyment of learning.
