I'm a 4th year graduate student at UCSC. My interest areas include:
collaboration, creativity, narrative and culture. Before returning to
academia I taught in several different settings: continuation high school,
court and community schools, and as an environmental educator in a resi-
dential setting.

My work is informed by Vygotskyan and Neo-Vygotskyan perspectives. Recent
thinking has been particularly stimulated by the works of Rogoff, Forman,
Wertsch to name a few.

A side area of interest has me thinking about non-word-centered communities
of practice (in particular, dance) and how meaning is mediated.

I followed discussions here last spring and look forward to resuming the
contact.

Thanks, Lori Felton
