    I love reading Giroux (who wrote one of the chapters). He is so smart and sees such interesting perspectives and (but) as one of my professors who was a classmate of his noted - and he knows it. This looks like a really interesting book, Barb. Thanks for adding it. I think I will order it - if it doesn't cost hundreds of dollars!

    Wow, Amazon has it for under $1.00!

    It was Giroux's chapter that the link went to. He was a little hard to read, but I'm hoping one day I'll be able to read it. $1.00 is a BARGAIN!!

    Not sure what she meant at the end about "there is no escape" once you begin teaching and learning online?? But agree with the main point about how teaching and learning is tied to economics (resources) and purpose. And, Barb, thanks because I became a member in the Higher Ed Guardian.
