Publishing to Encourage Thinking and Learning

ACTIVATE PEER LEARNING 

IN YOUR LIBRARY AND COMMUNITY

Shakespeare, Plato, Emily Dickinson, and others can inspire our thinking.  Activate Peer Learning identifies the thinking process as a skill that can be learned. It reveals how we can get on the same wavelength to think as these geniuses thought.

Great thinkers can become our peers and 

we can learn from them.

• What does it mean to activate peer learning?

• How can I harness the power of connected learning?

• How can I strengthen my ability to motivate and guide?

The Raphael painting on the front cover, The School of Athens, illustrates Plato and Socrates working within a mental structure (the building) to interact with universal ideas and engage peers.  The mindset you tap and the learning opportunities you create as a librarian are more important than this beautiful and inspirational framework of thinking.
