You've given me a ton of stuff to digest this evening. I've only read this post so far, yet I get the distinct sense that this is the kind of conference I would really, really enjoy! ;O) Enough on that topic though... Regarding "The World Is Flat..." I went through this stuff in April. Backwards. First, I watched "the movie". (Freidman does a great job in a speech for Minnesota Public Radio). 1 hour, 30 minutes. http://minnesota.publicradio.org/radio/features/2005/05/collaboration/ I bought the book. Thick sucker. I changed my mind and opted for the audio book. I'm about 6 hours into 18 hours...can't say that I've come across anything that I didn't get in the link above. I don't want to spin it as a negative...there may be more good content coming down the road with this book, but the "movie" version above will give you a great crash course to get you started on the main idea. Huge implications for education. Listen closely to the Q&A at the end. ;O) Thanks Steve! You’ve given me a ton of stuff to digest this evening.
