Innovations in Education
Invitation to contribute to a Collaborative Book!

First Edition
The first edition, Education for a Digital World: Advice, Guidelines, and Effective Practice from Around the Globe, has been published by the Commonwealth of Learning and is available to download from their website.
The creation of this book employed a unique interactive collaborative research model, one involving the formation of relationships and the sharing of ideas to produce new thinking. Offering a global perspective, it had almost 50 contributors from around the globe representing education, research, administration, and business.
Second Edition
We are now working on a 2nd Edition. The tentative title is Innovations in Education. Our goal is to launch /Innovations in Education/ at the 6th Pan-Commonwealth Forum on Open Learning, or PCF6, to be held in November 2010 in India.
We are identifying potential co-authoring opportunities, defining potential clusters or categories of interest, and more. Interested in contributing?
