I’m running out of post it notes…
I was inspired to finally read tribes after stumbling into an elluminate session with Seth Godin hosted by Steve Hargadon. The archive of the session can be found here
In the last paragraph of the book, Seth asks “spread the word”. I intend to hand it on to my 17 year old as pre- college reading. In the acknowledgements and story of how Tribes came about, Seth credits the work of Cory Doctorow and Hugh MacLeod. My son has enjoyed both of these writers already. He flew through Little Brother and devoured “Ignore Everybody” in the car on the way home from a college visit. Yes, I get the irony. Hope you do too.
“A student can sit in a classroom and accept what the teacher is sending out, then do the work and get by. Or she can provoke and question and ask for more” p57
FYI: I now run small (2-4 people) classes and individual online tech sessions
