I like to explore all kinds of information and how it impacts our lives, but for the next few months I am going to focus on the impact of the election of Trump as president. For millions of Americans who are in distress (that includes me) I'm going to explore how we can cope with the emotions engendered and take positive actions to make a difference--first in our own lives and then in the lives of our fellow citizens and in the future of our nation. Let's begin!
Instructions for living a life: Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.

First Night
The group has gathered, the adventure has commenced. Minneapolis MILI is a go! We have teachers and media specialists from three Minneapolis high schools and the guidance of Ann Walker Smalley, Karen Eidem and Deanna Sylte. We have discussed plagarism, shared proposed research projects and did a post-it note activity about our place (comfort,ease, knowledge) on the continuum of cutting edge technologies. It made a colorful picture of our varied skills and opportunities for growth. Dinner was delicious...falafel from the Holy Land, and amazing, still fresh! Who knew that "Nordeast" was really the Middle East?
