Interested? You bet! This sounds fascinating, worth all sorts of energy, input, collaboration. Very exciting. Count me in! What should we do to sign up on a "participation list"?

Carolyn,
Like you, I commented on Christian's "Learning D.N.A.--Peeking Under the Curtain" post. It's an enterprise whose time has come, just as TED's did a while back. My comment pointed to how many of us will enjoy the feel-good experience of a host of engaging visions and active ideas we can share together, but wonder how few of us will go no further personally to rethink the organizational cultures we're in and to start behaving in new ways professionally. Like most folks with some extended life experience, I see great promise in Learning-D.N.A. for helping educators refresh their motivations and missions together, but wonder how many will actually dare to actually try some "foolish and fun-filled" adventures the renaissance may prompt. But, I for one am strapping on my helmet for what may be a ride of a professional (and personal) lifetime!
