Dear friends,
This is of interest to me and integrates with my dissertation topic
which has to do with the meaningful integration of Learning Sciences,
Multicultural Ed, EdTech and Bilingual Ed in teacher preparation
programs. The CHAT framework has a still evolving role in this
integration for me.
So I'd be interested in any next steps. As Mike mentioned I'm working
to excavate the prior CHAT course as well ;-)
In Peace,
K.
