Alfie Kohn Quotes

You have to give them unconditional love. They need to know that even if they screw up, you love them. You don’t want them to grow up and resent you or, even worse, parent the way you parented them Picture Quote #1

The overwhelming number of teachers... are unable to name or describe a theory of learning that underlies what they do Picture Quote #1

When test scores go up, we should worry, because of how poor a measure they are of what matters, and what you typically sacrifice in a desperate effort to raise scores Picture Quote #1

In a word, learning is decontextualized. We break ideas down into tiny pieces that bear no relation to the whole. We give students a brick of information, followed by another brick, followed by another brick, until they are graduated, at which point we assume they have a house. What they have is a pile of bricks, and they don’t have it for long Picture Quote #1

The value of a book about dealing with children is inversely proportional to the number of times it contains the word behavior Picture Quote #1
