Dear Collegues, Vera reminds me that I also wanted to post my appreciation o=
f
the Aarhus conference. I thoroughly enjoyed it but unfortunately was unable=
to
attend many of the presentations, especially those on issues of diversity.
I spoke to
some of you about the possibility of participating in a tele-mediated discus=
sion
on diversity based on the papers that were presented and there was
definitely enough
in interest to pursue it. Michael Cole and I would like to focus
on"diversity and activity
theory" for this fall's LCHC's seminar. If you are interested in
participating, please
send your paper to LCHC and we will arrange a separate listserve for
the discussion. More details later.
Thanks,
Olga Vasquez
