Teaching, Learning, Schooling, and Script

This article considers several themes connected to the educational experience and builds on the keynote presentation made by the author at the 2007 transactional analysis conference in San Francisco. The article asserts that schooling is a universal experience that warrants consideration when reflecting on script formation. Furthermore, the process of schooling is fundamental in creating an individual's frame of reference regarding learning. The implications of this "learning script" are considered in relation to transactional analysis training.
