Education in and about the Real World.
Clinchy, Evans
Equity and Choice, v5 n2 p19-29 Mar 1989
Traditional schooling falls short of preparing students for real-world experience in failing to incorporate informal, "in-context" learning situations. Reviews the literature on experience-based education and cites several successful urban programs that involve students in the educative community through learning experience, career development, and "real activities."
