[OSList] OST and group methods in education settings

[Lisa Heft - via OSList]

Hi, Rob - 
I’m on the road and may or may not see emails again until after August 1.

SAGE Publications has an Encyclopedia of Action Research, and the entry on Facilitation names / mentions dialogic methods such as / including Open Space as useful to used in the action learning cycle. I am the author of that chapter. It’s possible that because these folks want evidence and something that makes them feel OST is ‘credible’ that they will feel comforted that it is mentioned in something called an encyclopedia. And mentioned in terms of Action Research, which educators often know as Action Learning. 

Thank you Rob for enriching our field with your own contributions to more understanding about Open Space and its use around the world,

Lisa
