ENCOUNTER is a quarterly magazine of educational research and perspective that features articles about returning balance to education by embedding teaching in a framework that enhances both students' personal growth as humane beings and cultivates in them a genuine commitment to social justice and an awareness that we are all but a part of a larger natural world -- while insisting on genuine achievement in learning and skill acquisition. To explore the Table of Contents of the current issue and selected articles posted online, visit our online contents page. ENCOUNTER is an important counterweight to the current trend in American educational policy that denigrates whatever cannot be mass produced and objectively measured. Unfortunately, this approach all too often reduces learning solely to multiple-choice or fill-in-the-blanks knowledge. ENCOUNTER believes that genuine learning involves more than that — and it invites you to join us in an exploration of the possibilities.
