Phillip Moore, director of the independent Upland Hills School for over forty years has much to offer educators, parents, indeed anyone who cares about how we are raising the next generation that will care for our world. The Future of Children grew out of over four decades of direct experience with children who have been educated in a school that was based on love. These children have grown up to be very different kinds of people. Their direct connection to the natural world has influenced them to feel a deep connection with life. Their sensory rich education has given them a life long love for creativity, for doing and making things of beauty and function. Their abilities to collaborate with others has given them the direct experience of accomplishing projects that live beyond the possibility of an individual. Their ability to do their own thinking and to be in love with life long learning has given them the confidence to live in a world of shifting complexity and deep uncertainty.
The lessons and the stories of this place and these people provide us with insights and the creative inspiration that will fuel new ways of teaching and new ways of learning. This book is a must for parents and educators who are dedicated to shifting from the dominant paradigm to a new paradigm that is based on love and deep inter-connection.
Phil Moore
Phil began playing world game in 1970. During that 6 week intensive at Buckminster Fuller’s office in Southern Illinois University, he experienced a transformation that grew into a collective that manifested Upland Hills School and Upland Hills Ecological Awareness Center. These learning communities demonstrate the power of love in service of World Game's premise "making the world work for 100% of humanity without disadvantaging the natural world". Feeling the completion after 50 years he and his wife and co-creator Karen Joy moved to the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina where they continue to play the infinite game, on behalf of all children in all worlds.
