I write and publish resources – aimed at educators, scholars, and the general public. I give presentations, workshops, and mentor and consult in order to move what I have learned out into the world.
I hope to make change – to build a critical mass of people who understand that violence impacts learning and change educational practices worldwide.
www.learningandviolence.net is for me a way to reach and engage with people who are not in the same room as me.
What do I want to do?
- Find new opportunities to share the knowledge I have gleaned from more than 30 years working on issues around learning and violence.
- Give presentations, workshops, courses, find places to publish popular articles.
- Find partners and allies to work with me/sponsor my work.
- I particularly want to find more interactive possibilities where my knowledge can meet the knowledge and experience of others. Together we can build new understandings and new possibilities of creating change in different settings.
Are you working on these issues? Do you know others who would benefit from learning about them? Do you have good ideas for places to publish?
