Peter Bradley, John Basl, Rudy Garns "Social Networking Technology and Teaching Philosophy."
Peter
Textbooks are like client-server systems; we need textbooks that work more like peer networks.

He actually has a free online critical thinking textbook, that comes with a printed version, and in use at 3 schools. USE THIS.
He is collecting critical thinking examples at http://inquiry.mcdaniel.edu/, and wants start crowdsourcing the database of examples.
