Our Lives and Other Worlds IX: CCT and Taking Yourself Seriously

Monday, March 5, 2012

This CCT Network event doubled as a book launching for Taking Yourself Seriously: Processes of Research and Engagement by Peter Taylor and Jeremy Szteiter. This is a field-book of tools and processes to help readers in all fields develop as researchers, writers, and agents of change (http://bit.ly/TYS2012)

A group of CCT alums reflected on the tools and processes they have used since graduation that are in the book. Each of them had something to say about using tools and processes to develop as researchers, writers, and agents of change. (Indeed, some of them are quoted [but not by name] on the back cover.) That primed reflection and discussion from the rest of the participants. (Audio & video recordings will be posted in due course.)
