Hi Everyone,
Since our education system is based on what happened in Greece,
France and England, can we try to get participants from Europe next
year? Part of the problem is that they have a different educational
system, Sixth forms and Bacs and Grandes Ecoles and public schools that
are private, and would probably not respond to the "community college"
limitation.
Even though they may not have much distance learning, I want to
know what the British and Europeans are doing with computer-enhanced
courses and teleconferencing and the like. They are great theorists and
would be good presenters on intellectual dilemmas. Where are the
Sartres and Nietzsches of the Internet?
Respectfully, Evergreen
