Future Forward
Integrative Teaching International would proudly like to present the first issue of our official journal Future Forward, "Four Minds For The Future."
ThinkTank is a high-intensity event, requiring a focused commitment and small scale. It will not work as a massive conference, with hundreds of people giving short presentations. Therefore, producing documentation that disseminates the dynamic thinking that takes place in a few days is crucial. We are breaking new ground with our first issue of Future Forward. We have exciting articles from each Think Tank 5 breakout group, an annotated bibliography and over twenty sample assignments. We are extremely excited about the quality of this publication and hope that you will be too! Please forward this journal to any colleagues whom you think will find the information useful.
