Work In Progress for a Project on Engaging Adult Learning Communities in Using The Principles of Theater Arts to Prepare Them to Create Social Change, Phase I

With respect to the goal of Phase I: "I have facilitated new avenues of classroom, workplace, and public participation," let me point to:

• My Action Research project. (This is not a direct illustration of Engagement with Others around "Recapturing the Joy of Adult Education Through a Theater Arts Perspective of Learning," but it shows the way my work actually unfolded.)
• The CCT Network (http://www.cct.umb.edu/CCTNetwork.html) that I helped to initiate in 2008 and have since co-organized. The Network's monthly events and online community aim to:
  • organize, in a sustainable fashion, personal and professional development, community building, and educational-innovation activities beyond the formal program of studies in Critical and Creative Thinking;
  • supplement students' education through the involvement of alums; and
  • continue alums' education by their involvement in the education of students and each other.
