About This Item
Synopsis
How Children Learn is a book by educator John Holt, first published in 1967. A revised edition was released in 1983 with new chapters and commentaries. The book focuses on Holt's interactions with young children, and his observations of children learning. From these experiences he attempts to make sense of how and why children do the things they do. The central thesis of his work is that children learn most effectively by their own motivation and on their own terms.
