dear michael, judi and glory,

i have forwarded your conversation on to my good friend steven werlin, who
'taught' a course this past spring semester called, 'education that
liberates.' he used open space technology user guide as the text book. after
spending the first couple of weeks reading and discussing it, the class
launched into open space for the rest of the semester. students decided to
extend invitations to anyone in the college interested in joining them for
each class. they conducted open space pretty much by the book, each week
giving participants opportunity to post subjects and divide into small
groups.

i hope steven, who is the dean of the college (shimer college, waukegan IL)
has time to share in greater detail, his experience.

in case anyone is interested in contacting him directly--he is not on the
list serve--his email during the summer while he is in haiti is:
