My guest today is Peter Gray, an American psychologist who currently occupies the position of research professor of psychology at Boston College. He is also a well known critic of standard learning systems, and calls himself an evolutionary developmental psychologist. He studies why children are the way they are by asking questions like: Why are children so playful? Why are they so willful? Why do children do what they do?
The topic is his book Free to Learn: Why Unleashing the Instinct to Play Will Make Our Children Happier, More Self-Reliant, and Better Students for Life.
In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:
Hunter gatherer cultures Self-reliance Evolution of development in youth Pros and cons of video games Ways of implicating free play back into societyJump in!
