"We might find out there are things we can do…(in adolescence)... to make a better brain (that) is not through four hours a night of homework. What if we find that, in the end, what the brain of the adolescent wants is play, that is certainly possible. What if the brain grows best when it is allowed to play?"

Enriching Communities: Concepts of Communities in the Future

“Enriching Communities” was the theme of the first International Baccalaureate Organization Worldwide Electronic Conference in 2004. John Abbott, as a contributor/leader, noted that the theme suggested that “right now, many people fear that communities are not what they once were, or indeed might be in the future, and that somehow they have to be enriched.” He contributed four papers to the conference, all on the topic of community (attached as one document, below).
