* When should children start using computers? * How should schools incorporate computer use into their curriculum? * Which types of computer software programs should be avoided? * Are children who don't have computers in class and at home doomed to fall behind their peers?

The Parent as Teacher
The deepest lessons a child carries into adulthood are not learned from textbooks or classrooms-they are absorbed at home, in the rhythms of daily life. Every shared meal, every bedtime story, every curious question asked and answered forms an invisible curriculum that shapes who a child becomes. This book reveals how ordinary family moments create the most enduring foundation for learning, and how parents can harness them with intention. In a world where schools often feel overstretched and standardized, the home remains the real school-an environment where family rituals for learning build belonging, where modeling curiosity for children sparks resilience, and where attention and focus for kids at home are cultivated through simple choices about routines and conversations. Drawing on psychology, culture, and research across generations, this book offers parents a fresh lens on their vital role-not as perfectionist instructors, but as everyday architects of learning. It shows how to recognize the invisible curriculum at home, design practical home learning strategies, and rethink the meaning of success in ways that prioritize curiosity, adaptability, and lifelong growth. Whether you are raising toddlers, guiding teenagers, or supporting children alongside schools, this book equips you to: - See your home as a powerful learning ecosystem - Turn ordinary routines into education beyond the classroom - Encourage children's questions without fear of "not knowing" - Align family practices with the values you most want to pass on By the end, you will not only see your household differently-you will hold a sharper model of how parents, culture, and daily life shape the true curriculum of learning.

Connections, Academics, and Purpose
More than ever, students are disengaging from school and looking for connection and purpose in their lives, something that educators often struggle to offer in the traditional school system. In response to this changing landscape, Cinde Lock and Anneke Lee offer the CAP Method of Education, a model which has already seen incredible results in schools.Both a philosophy and a methodology, the CAP Method of Education starts with building win-win partnerships and positions students as contributors and change agents, working alongside individuals and organizations striving to make a positive difference in the world. It shows how technology, when used constructively, can support personalized learning and help track student growth. This restructuring of educational norms helps students uncover their interests and discover their passions through action. Academic rigour is not the starting point but a natural outcome of work that matters, making learning more relevant, motivating, and permanent. The CAP method can be used at any level, at any school, to repackage and dramatically improve the learning experience of both students and educators. Equally inspiring and practical, the book provides a framework for educators, school leaders, and policymakers seeking meaningful change from within. It also speaks to parents who want more from education-schools that help their children uncover passions, build confidence, and pursue lives of purpose.
