Replying to LO19085 --

Jason,

I shall be particularly interested to know your view about schools as
learning organizations, and most particularly about teachers as learners
and participants in the learning process of the whole in the organization
called the school.

I am the director of a small university library and obsessed by the idea
that we should instructed our future graduates to be active members in the
future of their organizations, including the school. Is it completely
absurb to think that the success or failure of this abstraction called the
learning organization is primarly in their hand and that we should start
at this stage?
