| With summer on the horizon, many teens are looking forward to a break from school and tests. But for Sam Fuller of Albany, Calif., not much is going to change. Fuller is part of a rare minority of home-schoolers who call themselves "unschooled" — a more unstructured, self-directed form of home schooling. There are about 2 million registered home-schoolers in the U.S., a number that grows by about 10 percent a year. Sam's family can keep Sam and his brother home by registering their house as a private school. |

Sam, I appreciate your experience based learning style. I have discovered that the internet is a wonderful place to experiment, research and practice it. Using a curriculum driven by your life's priorities as opposed to a teacher's agenda makes learning (for you) interesting and applicable. (It is also impossible for a teacher to incorporate into a class room setting with numerous pupils.) Check out the examples on http://analysischamp.com/eex/expeval.asp for learning tools that I developed with the same "un-schooled" approach.
