Description

This week’s blog looks at another pedagogical model, TPSR (Teaching Personal and Social Responsibility), and the impact that it had on the involvement and self-direction (among other things) of six delinquency-prone youth. The blog argues that while transferring positive change from one situation to another proved difficult, change in perspective toward these young people and a change in pedagogy had some fairly positive effects. It concludes by suggesting that change takes time and, like Rome, doesn’t suddenly appear in a day.
