That’s the word you hear when you ask homeschooling parents about the resources available to them today. The \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2014/05/unshackled-and-unschooled-free-range-learning-movement-grows/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homeschooling and unschooling movements\u003c/a>, along with the \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/tag/open-education-resources/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">open-education resource movement\u003c/a>, have led to a wealth of free or low-cost and high-quality material available, especially online. The tough part is finding the time to wade through and evaluate it all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lisa Nalbone, a “self-directed education” proponent and former schoolteacher in California, helped her son, \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/mindshift/2013/03/bypassing-college-ideas-on-learning-outside-the-system/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">UnCollege guru Dale J.

Today, Nalbone has a \u003ca href=\"http://www.lisanalbone.com\">website\u003c/a> and email newsletter with tips for unschooling parents, and is working on a book on the topic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nalbone suggests that when it comes to finding resources, unschooling parents should find a community – a support group of like-minded folk who can help – and, as early as possible, involve your child in the process of finding resources. This helps your child learn how to find learning materials -- an essential skill for the lifelong learner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without helping your child learn that underlying skill, you’re missing out,\" says Nalbone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It must be noted that unschoolers do distinguish themselves from homeschoolers. \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unschooling\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Unschooling\u003c/a> is centered around what the child wants to learn using any and all resources available, not just fixed, school-prescribed curriculum, while some maintain homeschooling sticks to the same general curriculum as traditional schools, but brings it home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Either way, for both groups, learning resources can include not only online materials -- courses, worksheets, videos, podcasts and the like -- but also things like your local library or museum, or even your backyard.

The amount of information and resources is just incredible.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nalbone also points out that joining local museums sometimes means you also get access to a nationwide network of museums; if you're able to travel, this can mean saving the cost of separate entry fees. \"For a $20 family membership at a local science museum, we could go to different ones around the country.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>* \u003cstrong>Tours of area businesses, manufacturers, and historic sites\u003c/strong> can provide real-world business and history lessons (“Dale loves tours of any kind; once he found a behind-the-scenes tour of the Toyota factory,” recalls Nalbone.) One great website to find tours in your area is \u003ca href=\"http://factorytoursusa.com\">Factorytoursusa.com\u003c/a>, which lists more than 500 places to visit, organized by state and searchable by category. You can find information about tours of everything from kaleidoscope makers to auto and boat manufacturers to fabric mills to film studios, government facilities, space centers and much more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>* \u003cstrong>Your backyard garden\u003c/strong> is an ideal place for kids to learn lessons about science, math, art and other subjects. In a unit about insects, Ellen Jenkins first reviewed library books showing insects in different stages of metamorphosis, then sent Nyle outside. \"He was digging in the ground looking for things for almost two hours and found different insects.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>* \u003cstrong>Other activities of daily living \u003c/strong>can be used to foster learning. Children can plan meals and be part of the grocery-shopping process. They can keep track of prices, determine the best values per unit, and assess nutritional value, bringing in math and science skills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>* \u003cstrong>Community service work\u003c/strong>: Children can learn much from volunteering at organizations like libraries, food pantries, homeless shelters – everything from empathy to organizational skills and independence. Nalbone's son became involved with his library board as a teen, for example. \"Service learning offers such rich resources for children as they get older,\" she says, \"so they can learn beyond what a parent's own skills are.\"\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Learning resources can include not only online materials -- courses, worksheets, videos, podcasts and the like -- but also things like your local library or museum, or even your backyard.

The amount of information and resources is just incredible.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nalbone also points out that joining local museums sometimes means you also get access to a nationwide network of museums; if you're able to travel, this can mean saving the cost of separate entry fees. \"For a $20 family membership at a local science museum, we could go to different ones around the country.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>* \u003cstrong>Tours of area businesses, manufacturers, and historic sites\u003c/strong> can provide real-world business and history lessons (“Dale loves tours of any kind; once he found a behind-the-scenes tour of the Toyota factory,” recalls Nalbone.) One great website to find tours in your area is \u003ca href=\"http://factorytoursusa.com\">Factorytoursusa.com\u003c/a>, which lists more than 500 places to visit, organized by state and searchable by category.

In a unit about insects, Ellen Jenkins first reviewed library books showing insects in different stages of metamorphosis, then sent Nyle outside. \"He was digging in the ground looking for things for almost two hours and found different insects.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>* \u003cstrong>Other activities of daily living \u003c/strong>can be used to foster learning.

Judging by the explosion of websites, books, Facebook groups, and homeschool groups adopting the unschooling label, the 40-year-old movement, first coined by author John Holt in the 1970s, appears to be on the upswing, as is homeschooling in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 2.2 million school-aged children are homeschooled in the U.S. today – a number that’s growing by 5 to 10 percent annually, says Brian D. Ray, a former university professor and director of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nheri.org\" target=\"_blank\">National Home Education Research Institute\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ray’s numbers are higher than the 1.77 million homeschoolers (representing 3.4 percent of all students) reported by the U.S. Department of Education in a \u003ca href=\"http://nces.ed.gov/pubs2013/2013028.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">2012 survey\u003c/a>. Ray believes the government’s survey undercounts the homeschool population, which he measures using data from states that keep it (not all do) plus input from home-school organizations and vendors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Ray doesn’t have data on the number of unschoolers, he senses momentum for it: “I hear people talking about it more.” In 2011, an\u003ca href=\"http://www.today.com/id/44316853/ns/today-back_to_school/t/schools-out-forever-unschoolers/#.U2PJWFN072U\" target=\"_blank\"> Associated Press story estimated\u003c/a> the number of unschoolers could be one-third of typical homeschoolers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Being bored makes school miserable for a lot of kids, plus there is the element of compulsion, which completely changes any activity,\" Colorado unschool mom \u003ca href=\"http://www.today.com/id/44316853/ns/today-back_to_school/t/schools-out-forever-unschoolers/#.U2PJWFN072U\" target=\"_blank\">Carol Brown said in the AP article. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether homeschooling or unschooling, home education is growing for several reasons. “It’s easier to try it than it used to be,” says Ray. “There is less adult peer pressure against it; it’s more socially accepted. The support services are expanded. And adults who were home-educated are now having children” – and have a higher rate of homeschooling their own children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jenkins notes that two years ago, when she pulled Nyle from public school, she felt she constantly had to defend her choice; now, she says, homeschooling seems to have become more common, with more homeschool groups popping up near her, and with her state – Iowa – recently doing away with testing and other restrictions for homeschoolers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>PROS AND CONS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents homeschool for many reasons. The most common, cited by 25 percent in the Department of Education study, was concern about the school environment (worries about safety, drugs, or negative peer pressure). And 19 percent of parents homeschool for the same reason as Jenkins: dissatisfaction with academic instruction. What's more, 16 percent of parents said they homeschool in order to provide religious instruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are plenty of reasons for parents not to choose to homeschool. Many aren’t sure they want to spend that much time with their kids, Ray says. And perhaps the most prevalent reason: They don’t know how they can afford to have a parent stay at home to be a teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When possible, some families have shifted their lifestyles, with a second parent working from home or working part-time, Ray says, and single-parent families have been able to homeschool with help from grandparents or family members. Not counting the lack of (or lowered) income, the cost output to home-educate a child, Ray says, is about $400 to $600 annually on average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Jenkins, their decision for her to stay at home full time with her 1-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son, in addition to Nyle, now 8, means they're “broke and happy.” The family makes do on one income by cooking more (with Nyle and his siblings involved in cooking as a lesson) and driving less. They also use many free or low-cost resources in the community to help foster Nyle’s learning – free art classes offered by the local art museum, frequent library visits to stock up on books, passes to local nature centers, and membership in a new homeschooling parents’ group that plans to begin offering classes next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"4485bb6802670c88039c35660d1cccb7\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a typical “unschool” day, Nyle might visit a library, tromp around the nature center and talk to the naturalists, feed and care for his chickens, work on spelling exercises online, do math worksheets, read and write and create artwork – spending no more than 90 minutes or so in actual formal learning, says Jenkins. She and Nyle delve deeply into topics they both agree to study – such as Egypt or insects or biomes -- incorporating math, science, social studies, English and other subjects as they relate to the topic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Achievement tests indicate homeschool students do well; nationwide studies Ray has done show homeschoolers generally perform 15-30 percentile points above average, putting them in the 65th to 85th percentile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://psycnet.apa.org/journals/cbs/43/3/195/\" target=\"_blank\">2011 Canadian study\u003c/a> found that “structured” homeschool students ages five through 10 outperformed traditional students – but that “unstructured” homeschoolers (in other words, unschoolers) fared least well. Ray notes this study only looked at younger children, suggesting that by graduation age, kids may catch up; also, unstructured students aren’t necessarily learning standardized test items and so it isn’t surprising they wouldn’t do well on a test of this knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dale J. Stephens was unschooled from grades six through 12 while living in a small California farm town; he did well enough on standardized tests to be recruited by colleges. Stephens chose a private college in Arkansas, but quickly became just as disenchanted with that type of formal, structured education as he had been with his public elementary school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stephens dropped out of college and started an \u003ca href=\"http://uncollege.org\" target=\"_blank\">UnCollege\u003c/a> movement, extending the idea of unschooling beyond K-12 to higher education. He received a Thiel Foundation grant for “changemakers” and wrote a book, “Hacking Your Education,” featuring people who have achieved success in careers without having degrees or having degrees in unrelated fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Stephens, 22, started \u003ca href=\"http://www.uncollege.org/gapyear/\" target=\"_blank\">The UnCollege Gap Year Program\u003c/a>. The program costs $15,000* and helps enrollees figure out what they want to do with their lives and includes stints living abroad and interning in relevant industries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, says Stephens, half of those who enrolled in the program’s first cohort have received or taken job offers in the field they were pursuing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As an unschooler, says Stephens, he was able to have experiences he couldn’t have had given the public school options in his hometown, including starting small businesses (flower delivery and photo sales), working on political campaigns, and helping his town build a new library. He also learned important life skills – how to find mentors, do good research, negotiate, be self-motivated – that he tries to impart to his Gap Year enrollees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem> *Clarification: A previous version of this article stated the wrong cost for the program.

Ray believes the government’s survey undercounts the homeschool population, which he measures using data from states that keep it (not all do) plus input from home-school organizations and vendors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Ray doesn’t have data on the number of unschoolers, he senses momentum for it: “I hear people talking about it more.” In 2011, an\u003ca href=\"http://www.today.com/id/44316853/ns/today-back_to_school/t/schools-out-forever-unschoolers/#.U2PJWFN072U\" target=\"_blank\"> Associated Press story estimated\u003c/a> the number of unschoolers could be one-third of typical homeschoolers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Being bored makes school miserable for a lot of kids, plus there is the element of compulsion, which completely changes any activity,\" Colorado unschool mom \u003ca href=\"http://www.today.com/id/44316853/ns/today-back_to_school/t/schools-out-forever-unschoolers/#.U2PJWFN072U\" target=\"_blank\">Carol Brown said in the AP article. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether homeschooling or unschooling, home education is growing for several reasons. “It’s easier to try it than it used to be,” says Ray. “There is less adult peer pressure against it; it’s more socially accepted. The support services are expanded. And adults who were home-educated are now having children” – and have a higher rate of homeschooling their own children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jenkins notes that two years ago, when she pulled Nyle from public school, she felt she constantly had to defend her choice; now, she says, homeschooling seems to have become more common, with more homeschool groups popping up near her, and with her state – Iowa – recently doing away with testing and other restrictions for homeschoolers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>PROS AND CONS\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parents homeschool for many reasons. The most common, cited by 25 percent in the Department of Education study, was concern about the school environment (worries about safety, drugs, or negative peer pressure). And 19 percent of parents homeschool for the same reason as Jenkins: dissatisfaction with academic instruction. What's more, 16 percent of parents said they homeschool in order to provide religious instruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there are plenty of reasons for parents not to choose to homeschool. Many aren’t sure they want to spend that much time with their kids, Ray says. And perhaps the most prevalent reason: They don’t know how they can afford to have a parent stay at home to be a teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When possible, some families have shifted their lifestyles, with a second parent working from home or working part-time, Ray says, and single-parent families have been able to homeschool with help from grandparents or family members. Not counting the lack of (or lowered) income, the cost output to home-educate a child, Ray says, is about $400 to $600 annually on average.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Jenkins, their decision for her to stay at home full time with her 1-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son, in addition to Nyle, now 8, means they're “broke and happy.” The family makes do on one income by cooking more (with Nyle and his siblings involved in cooking as a lesson) and driving less. They also use many free or low-cost resources in the community to help foster Nyle’s learning – free art classes offered by the local art museum, frequent library visits to stock up on books, passes to local nature centers, and membership in a new homeschooling parents’ group that plans to begin offering classes next year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a typical “unschool” day, Nyle might visit a library, tromp around the nature center and talk to the naturalists, feed and care for his chickens, work on spelling exercises online, do math worksheets, read and write and create artwork – spending no more than 90 minutes or so in actual formal learning, says Jenkins. She and Nyle delve deeply into topics they both agree to study – such as Egypt or insects or biomes -- incorporating math, science, social studies, English and other subjects as they relate to the topic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Achievement tests indicate homeschool students do well; nationwide studies Ray has done show homeschoolers generally perform 15-30 percentile points above average, putting them in the 65th to 85th percentile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://psycnet.apa.org/journals/cbs/43/3/195/\" target=\"_blank\">2011 Canadian study\u003c/a> found that “structured” homeschool students ages five through 10 outperformed traditional students – but that “unstructured” homeschoolers (in other words, unschoolers) fared least well. Ray notes this study only looked at younger children, suggesting that by graduation age, kids may catch up; also, unstructured students aren’t necessarily learning standardized test items and so it isn’t surprising they wouldn’t do well on a test of this knowledge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dale J. Stephens was unschooled from grades six through 12 while living in a small California farm town; he did well enough on standardized tests to be recruited by colleges. Stephens chose a private college in Arkansas, but quickly became just as disenchanted with that type of formal, structured education as he had been with his public elementary school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stephens dropped out of college and started an \u003ca href=\"http://uncollege.org\" target=\"_blank\">UnCollege\u003c/a> movement, extending the idea of unschooling beyond K-12 to higher education. He received a Thiel Foundation grant for “changemakers” and wrote a book, “Hacking Your Education,” featuring people who have achieved success in careers without having degrees or having degrees in unrelated fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Stephens, 22, started \u003ca href=\"http://www.uncollege.org/gapyear/\" target=\"_blank\">The UnCollege Gap Year Program\u003c/a>. The program costs $15,000* and helps enrollees figure out what they want to do with their lives and includes stints living abroad and interning in relevant industries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, says Stephens, half of those who enrolled in the program’s first cohort have received or taken job offers in the field they were pursuing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As an unschooler, says Stephens, he was able to have experiences he couldn’t have had given the public school options in his hometown, including starting small businesses (flower delivery and photo sales), working on political campaigns, and helping his town build a new library. He also learned important life skills – how to find mentors, do good research, negotiate, be self-motivated – that he tries to impart to his Gap Year enrollees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem> *Clarification: A previous version of this article stated the wrong cost for the program.

Where would children go every day? How can we measure what they learn? Who would be in charge? What if they don't go to college?
