Announcing the Independent School Cooperative

The Independent School Cooperative is a new endeavor to support online
learning in the world of independent schools.

Our goal is to build a supportive and challenging online learning
community comprised of independent school educators committed to
collaboratively exploring the design and construction of excellent online
learning communities for independent school students.

The cooperative will be run in a transparent, compassionate and democratic
manner. Courses offered through the cooperative will always belong to
their creators. The 'price' of offering a course through the cooperative
is a commitment to ongoing active participation in building and supporting
this learning community.

If you are an independent school teacher interested in developing and/or
offering an online course geared to independent school students (or
teachers) please consider joining us at http://iscoop.ning.com

Thanks,

Fred Bartels
