Fireside Learning:  Conversations about Education

Across Study Groups, across Learning Groups, we've wanted to share and extend RESOURCES. So I'm just going to begin. We may find a format we prefer as we go along, but let's just start getting them accessible.

Make sure that you have permission to share the papers, etc. Get author's permission.

This animation shows resources that are available on the Tutor/Mentor Connection web site. This section has quite a few links to articles relevant this discussion.

I've not been as active in this and other forums in the past couple of months due to the challenges of finding the dollars needed to operate Cabrini Connections and the Tutor/Mentor Connection.

I think that one resource section might be devoted just to the issue of funding, because few of the innovations can be implemented, or sustained, without a consistent flow of dollars.
