Unschooling is a term that is associated with interest driven, child-led, natural, organic, eclectic, or self-directed learning. Lately, the term has also come to be associated with the type of homeschooling that doesn't use a fixed curriculum.

It seems that there are small pockets of unschoolers here and there throughout Northern California, but there hasn't been an easy way to connect with each other. This group is for unschoolers and anyone else interested in the very simple, but very radical idea that life is learning and learning is life! This list is not meant to be primarily a philosophic or theoretical discussion group. NoCalUnschoolers is a place for sharing ideas and planning get-togethers with other like-minded families.
