This innovative, year-round, residential "lab school" is affiliated with a motor company, and focuses on learner-centered education. Each chapter includes a story demonstrating life at Eagle Creek, a discussion of the concepts illustrated by the story sometimes with references to other places, resources, and materials for further study followed by questions for the reader about their own curriculum, and ways to make it more learner-centered.
