Bill Deresiewicz on The Power and Peril of Self-Education
About this episode
What does it mean to “self-educate?” Are autodidacts made or born? Can one develop an intellect without formal higher education? In this special episode, Blake discusses these big questions (and many more) with Bill Deresiewicz (the author of Excellent Sheep) and guest facilitator Dev Carey. This event was recorded live in Portland, Oregon, on September 1, 2019, at the Wayfinding Academy.

(Note: My claim about the percentage of K-12 students in private schools in the US was wrong: it’s roughly 10%.)
