The Ohio Gadfly was ahead of the curve with its summer reading list.? And yesterday Liam told us what Diane Ravitch was reading.? For those of you still trying to?get a little more summer in before back to school strikes and may be looking for some beach-blanket (or deep woods) books to sustain the vacationing mind, I'd recommend the National Journal's Expert Blogs rendition of summer reading.
See what thirteen of your favorite (or not) education reformers are reading (or say they want to read): Andy Rotherham, Alex Johnston, Ellen Winn, Deborah McGriff, Kate Walsh, Rick Hess, Richard Lee Colvin, Monty Neill, Anne Bryant, Steve Peha, Alexander Russo, Ravitch, and Tom Vander Ark. Their recommendations include, The World is Open, Small Change: Why Business Won't Save the World, The Flat World, The Corner, Linchpin, Schools Cannot Do It Alone, Bringing School Reform to Scale?.
I don't have a Kindle yet (Steve Peha does and says he's reading more), but would be curious how many educators are using them.? And how do they do in the rain and the sand?
