More on collaboration

I’ve been SO busy these past few days at AAR that I haven’t been able to read blogs, let alone write in mine. This morning I’m busy packing and figuring out how to get to the airport, but in the process of eating my morning oatmeal I read this piece found in Weblogg-ed. It’s a post based on early chapters from a new book by Don Tapscott that stresses not just the value of collaboration, but its essential quality in today’s environments. Sometimes I feel as if theological education is the last arena in which such topics are being taken seriously, but if this book is accurate (and I think it is, and that it works well with Henry Jenkins on Convergence Culture) we’d better get our act together.
