Attention
Educators!
Good news!
The educational DVD-ROM Life With Principle: Thoreau's Voice in
Our Time is now available for purchase through the Thoreau Society
eStore, www.shopatwaldenpond.org.
The DVD-ROM
is a major initiative of the Thoreau Society. Our membership continues
to play a crucial role for the project. In the past, our members
have assisted in developing the Curriculum framework. The two
committees that were involved in its design represent individuals
from 28 of the United States, including: Alaska, California, Colorado,
Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota,
Missouri, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
Texas, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming.
The Society is now focusing on promoting and distributing the
Life with Principle DVD-ROM to schools across America and around the world. We are
keenly interested in establishing networks to promote discussion
of Thoreau’s ideas, not only within but between schools, and
we will continue to explore the possibilities toward attaining this
goal.
If you are interested in having your students participate with other schools located in the United States or overseas, please
contact us.
If you or
your organization would be interested in sponsoring a DVD-ROM to a local school, or several schools within and outside the United
States, please contact us. Such pairings will facilitate dialog around Thoreau's timeless ideas and
a better understanding of American culture.
