As the News Letter Editor I sent out the following message (please note that few of our members responded, please participate) to the Walden PDK Cyber Chapter: I came across a "Book Review" in the June/July 2000 "The Teaching Professor", entitled Learning that Lasts: Integrating Learning, Development, and Performance in College and Beyond, by Marcia Mentkowski & Associates. There were a couple of statements that I felt would be appropriate for PDK members to discuss. So, please provide your comments on the following statements:

"The wide range of evidence supports the idea of curricula doing something more than developing content knowledge."

"Rethinking curricula in ways that focus on personal development and learning outcomes is possible and indeed needed at all sorts of institutions."
