Welcome to Life Learning Magazine. I hope that
you’ll look around the website, check out what the magazine is about,
read a few articles from back issues, and then decide to subscribe.
Because this is a digital magazine, our subscription price is kept low.
But I believe that you will be willing to pay for what many readers have
said is unusually high quality and unique editorial. (And since my
company’s ethics are high compared to those of many other publishing
companies – you can read our policy
here – we depend on readers
rather than on advertisers to help cover expenses.) I know that you can find a massive amount of free content on the web. However, the advantages of paid content are numerous. Life Learning Magazine provides you with an organized, focused, and thematic selection of professionally written and edited in-depth articles, as well as inspiringly designed layouts. We’ve received hundreds of compliments on both our content and our presentation. Here are just a few samples. Life Learning’s editorial digs deep into the issues that concern and motivate both life learners and parents of life learners. However, one of my core beliefs is that there are no rules about what “unschooling” should look like in your home because you and your children know what’s best for your family’s life together. So Life Learning doesn’t provide instructions or apply pressure to do things a certain way. Nor does it criticize or belittle you for your parenting practices. What you will find here is lots of respect – just like I feel our kids deserve. I hope this will be a comfortable and inspiring place for you to share your experiences, and to give and receive support about life learning and its effect on all aspects of life. My work and, by extension, Life Learning Magazine,
is defined by a stubborn belief in the power of individuals to create
positive change – in our own lives and beyond. Please join me as this
change takes shape.
About Editor Wendy Priesnitz Wendy Priesnitz is Life Learning’s owner and editor, and the author of a number of books on home-based education, including Challenging Assumptions in Education: From Institutionalized Education to a Learning Society (The Alternate Press, 2000). She is also the mother of two unschooled adult daughters who are now living successfully in the real world that so often frightens parents and those who don't understand life learning. Wendy is an agent of change who, when she was barely out of her teens, recognized the need for rethinking how we work, play, and educate ourselves in order to restore the planet’s social and ecological balance. For the last forty years, her mission has been to help people understand the interconnections within the web of life on Earth and to encourage them to challenge the assumptions inherent in the often conflicting choices we make in our daily lives. She writes from a position of experience rather than from academic research, and aims for conciseness and clarity in her style. Read more of Wendy's biography.

The term "life learning" refers to a form of homeschooling that is focused on the child and avoids the trappings of school. It is sometimes called "unschooling," "radical unschooling," or "natural learning." Life learning children live and learn naturally, with the support of their families, based on their own interests and their own timetables, and without curriculum, tests, or grades. Go here, here and here for a more comprehensive explanation. Copyright © 2002 - 2012 Life Media | About
