Compare and contrast World Schooling and Unschooling. Well, World schooling is an educational movement that recognizes that a student can receive no greater education than by experiencing and interacting with the world around them. A wish to introduce children to the wider world around them. Coined by Eli Gerzon, world schooling is "when the whole world is your school, instead of school being your whole world.“A holistic approach to learning. The term "unschooling" probably derives from Ivan Illich's term "deschooling", and was popularized through John Holt's newsletter Growing Without Schooling (GWS). Holt is also widely regarded as the father of unschooling. Unschooling involves a complete rejection of the school system and trust in the children to learn through their interests and curiosity at whatever pace they prefer. Unschooling is fully child-led learning. Parents and other human beings are involved as key facilitators of that learning. Unschooling operates with the faith that children are naturally curious and will follow their interests in their way.
