Summer Book Club? The New Culture of Learning

[Mark Hines]

Hi All - the ISTE SIGIS (Independent Schools Special Interest Group) is having a summer reading book club with the book by Douglas Thomas and Richard Seely Brown "A New Culture of Learning: Cultivating the Imagination for a World of Constant Change". Anyone want to join in? The book was only $9 for the Kindle version. The discussion is going to happen starting June 1 over at the Independent School network ning: http://isenet.ning.com/

Maybe we could form a round table sometime before or after ISTE?

I'm interested, Marc, but I am not able to attend ISTE this year. I'd love to participate in the book discussion anyway if that's ok. I just signed up with the Ning site and will order the book (kindle) right away - sounds interesting:)

Hi Jane

Have read the first 4 chapters - I like the book - It aligns nicely with many of the goals of our SoTF group. The discussion is at the Independent schools ning site - so whether you go to ISTE or not, it will be a great discussion, I suspect

Thanks, Marc. I'm only 2 chapters into it but enjoying it, too. I think the discussion will be interesting - looking forward to it:)
