Transformative Valuing explores how education can change people's lives for the better. It asks if education always transforms us, what it needs to do to be truly transformative, how educators can decide if transformative experiences are good, and how schools can create these experiences. The focus is on valuing transformation and how personal qualities and social support are crucial for a transformed life. The author argues that schools can make decisions for students based on what is always good for them, even as their needs change. Schools should offer activities that help students flourish.
