How to get ready for the next book discussion, Dec 5th, “The App Generation: How Today’s Youth Navigate Identity, Intimacy, and Imagination in a Digital World” by Gardner and Davis.  Two questions to think about as you read: What are ways we might better or ways we already are modeling app enabled behavior for our students? What are ways we might be modeling app dependency? Register Here for the event.

The 3rd and final book in our series is   FICTION: Sloan, Robin (2013)  Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, Picador, New York, NY. (It's a novel, but it deals (colorfully and rivetingly) with the clash between so-called Old Knowledge (books) and New Knowledge (internet and other virtual forms of communication). Not only that, it's a great read--funny, swashbuckling, and serious by turns.) Join us on January 9, 2015 Register Here
