19、 disaster has arrived in the form of the energy crisis. Our present situation is unlike war, revolution or depression.

20、hich endangers the future of our country, our children, and our earth, but a movement forward to a new norm in order to work rapidly and effectively on planetary problems. This country has been falling back under the continuing exposures of loss of morality and the revelation that lawbreaking has re

21、ached into the highest places in the land. There is a strong demand for moral revival and for some devotion that is vast enough and yet personal enough to enlist the devotion of all. In the past it has been only in a way of defense of their own country and their own ideals that any people have been

Among these innovations are team teaching and teaching aides, non-graded elementary and secondary schools, independent study, curricula focused on helping

30、students discover things for themselves rather than on trying to tell them everything, and schools designed for maximum flexibility so that students can work alone, or in small groups, or take part in large-group instruction via diverse media.
