[Ailist] AI in Universities

[Marge Schiller]

Dear Richard,

What a timely request.

The November issue of the AI Practitioner will be focused on "Life  
Long Learning and Education:On the Road to Finding Out"
The issue is divided into two sections- one on theory and the other  
on practice.

  The cases are divided between University settings With titles like  
" Learning for Distributive Leadership" at West Chester  
University,"AI and  Faculty Development "at LaSalle University and  
"Transformative  Leadership Development for College Undergraduates"  
at Ryder University. An innovative program  in another University  
setting: Integrating Life and Learning:  "An Account of Academic and  
Practical Change in a Graduate Education Context"


There are an equal number of stories from schools in Canada, the USA  
and U.K. All of these cases highlight use of Appreciative Inquiry in  
cities, towns and school district.

Steve Pyser and I are editing the  November  issue. We hope you enjoy  
it and find it useful

Deptending on the focus of the request you may also be interested in  
a Strategic Planning Process Jackie Stavros and I will be conducting  
for a college in Massachusetts.
We will be using the SOAR (Strengths,Opportunities, Aspirations and  
Results) approach
