New text: Curriculum 21: Essential Education For A Changing World

[Frank W. Baker]

ASCD has just published "Curriculum 21- Essential Education for A Changing World." I think this new text should be on the desk of every principal. (In fact, many ASCD members will be receiving it during the month of January.) It was edited by Heidi Hayes Jacobs. (Full disclosure: the book includes a chapter I wrote on media literacy). Happy New Year and happy reading. Frank Baker

Great to see you posting the book on this site, Frank. What Ryan has been doing with this site is so much in sync with what Heidi's vision of curriculum21. I've seen tiny bits and pieces of the book for almost a year, and now I am eagerly waiting for my personal copy to arrive. Expect to see more from Heidi on curriculum21 in the next week to ten days. (Full disclosure: I'm a consultant working with Heidi). Earl Nicholas
