"It always works" - revisited again

[Judi Richardson]

Hello Larry and Diane,

Open Space in education is such a natural fit.  As many of you know I've
been using it as a teaching methodology at the University Level.  I even
facilitated Business Law using OST.  Many teachers are in pain and limping
through our education systems.  If you remember after Michael, Chris, Julie
and I used OST in Alaska many schools used OST for their faculty meetings.

In two weeks I am using OST with 130 - 9th graders.  They want to leave
their middle school with suggestions and praise as they move on to high
school.  Their middle school wants to incorporate their ideas into next
year's strategic planning.  So I will spend an afternoon "playing" with
them.  This also allows me to bring a couple of new OST facilitators along
in a mentoring capacity.

Larry -- I'd also like to know about the leading edge university!

Create an Extraordinary Day!

Judi

  HI Larry,

  It's great to see this work with the education milieu who needs all the
support and energy it can get. Congratulations and keep up the good work.

  I've also experienced negative intro, eg. by an Assistant Deputy Minister
with a group of 250 already demoralised and abused managers. But, yes, they
found their space and at the end of the very first day, expressed amazement
at their own renewed commitment and enthousiasm.

      You wrote : One University is already purusing an Education Faculty
Open Space and two potential trainees are wanting to learn how to do it.



  Which leading edge university is that? It would be good to know so we can
add it to our links or our web with open  organisations.



  The best in your future projects,



  Diane Gibeault
