The terminology and distinctions about online resources come up
occasionally.

-=-does everyone on this board understand unschooling 100%?? -=-

-=-this is my 6th unschooling site-=-



And as a clarification, this is a list, not a site and not a board.
Most people probably don't care, but I like language, and there is a
difference in all those terms.



These are sites:

http://sandradodd.com/unschooling

http://joyfullyrejoycing.com/

http://www.learninginfreedom.com/



This is a board (short for "message board," also known as a forum):

http://unschooling.info/forum

Messages stay there indefinitely, and people come and post or not.
It's a site, in that the messages stay in one place in that same
arrangement, in folders and topics.



Then there are many blogs, some listed here:

http://sandradodd.com/help (lower center column)

and some linked on the left sidebar of

http://sandradodd.blogspot.com (and each of those has links to eight
or twenty others)



Information about unschooling as it unfolds in other families is
available in more and more places every day.

Then there are lists. Lists are for discussing unschooling.
Different lists have different slants, but I don't think any
unschooling list would welcome advice being given without qualifying
statements (like "I'm not unschooling yet" or "my children are very
young and I'm just thinking about unschooling but...").

Some other unschooling lists are here:

Some people prefer one of those (lists, boards, sites, blog) over all
others. I use all four.

I think those links above lead people to enough unschooling
information to fulfill any need they might ever have. It won't
cost a cent. To complain about something that vast and that free
tells more about the individual complaining than about unschooling,
or boards, or sites.
