About the Book

Better schools need more effective teaching and a new approach to learning to increase the effectiveness of future education. This won't happen as long as schools look, and act, like places of incarceration. We need experimental school ideas and models that stretch our definition of teaching to focus on learning rather than correcting, two very different approaches. Classrooms, for adults and children, can transform themselves into lively centers for exploration, assembly, skepticism and fluidity by removing traditional barriers to learning. Since the default setting for human beings is to learn, we don't need to make anyone learn, simply remove the barriers, e.g. standardized testing, grades and grade levels, top-down management, that stand in all of our way.

Review :
I have watched Mac Bogert numerous times as he led classes in a variety of leadership topics. Mac takes learning seriously enough to enjoy every moment. Participants leave his sessions alight with a new curiosity and respect for challenging ideas. Learning Chaos captures this enthusiasm and brings his insight to the critical dilemma of our schools. Bravo! -Kirke Harper, Director (retired) of the Leadership Development Academy at the Graduate School, USDA Mac Bogert's work is important for our time, since changing the classroom means changing our habits of thinking. Learning Chaos is not only timely and relevant, it's fun to read. -Sir John Hargrave, Author of "Mind Hacking: How to Change Your Mind for Good in 21 Days" Mac plays blues guitar, sails, and ... Hell, there is little he can't do. His passion is infectious. But Mac always comes back to what shapes him. He's a teacher. More important, he is a learner. Learning Chaos is a good read and an important book that will forever change how we view education. -Robert Ward, author, screenwriter, producer I met Mac when we worked together during a major organizational change at the U.S. Department of Education. I'm not surprised that Learning Chaos is full of surprises. The book is a reflection of his willingness to challenge any practice that impedes learning. -Gail Hanson, Vice President of Campus Life, American University I have always been passionate about leadership and sustainability. The goal of Learning Chaos parallels my own-sustainable, lifelong learning. The book balances humor and careful research toward a revolution in education. -Greg Balestrero, Strategic Advisor for the International Institute for Learning, author, Organizational Survival: Profitable Strategies for a Sustainable Future
