I think things will be moving back to normal here shortly. There have been some exciting developments over the past couple of weeks:
You can follow Manual’s adventures towards autonomy here.
The Beyond Pedagogy Inquiry Group that I’ve put together will have its first meeting on Thursday. I will post our remaining schedule online for anyone interested in participating.
I’ll be presenting with a couple of other LA folk at the Critical Teaching in Action conference in April – this mainly serves as a reminder that I’ve got to get around to writing the graffiti curriculum.
I’m still regularly posting at the LA Times Homeroom blog. Berhanu’s “This I Believe” essay is staggering. Read it here.
Perhaps most exciting, I’ve just returned from Chicago as a recipient of a Digital Media and Learning Innovation grant in collaboration with Greg Niemeyer. The grant was sponsored by the MacArthur foundation. There will be plenty of future discussion of the Black Cloud Game, though you can read our brief project description here and you can see a handful of play testing picture on Greg’s blog.
More to come!
