Mike,
RE: "people's interest in pursuing this line...(Dev.Psych & Education
either-or-ness)" not as a an alternative to interdisciplinary enterprises
BUT
as they relate to people's experiences with interdisciplinary enterprises.
I'd like to hear more discussion and/or take a gander at the web page with
LCHC materials you mentioned.
By the way, I have not experienced biological reductionist tendencies in
this department (Developmental Psych) and now find myself seeking contexts
in which I can apply my devpsych info and testing the waters of education's
(well, at least education-in-practice here in NYC) inclinations and
dis-inclinations to emphasize anything "innovative" regardless of
"effectiveness" while actually just moving a lot of furniture around.
I just put in an order for Diane Ravitch's new history of the disaster of
education reform in this century. Now if I can just find time to read it...
then I'll remember to offer to help organize a summary effort like the one
you suggest(if anyone is interested.)
