What Are You Reading This Summer? #summerreading

This year, the summer months are providing me space to read articles and books that I have been collecting on my #ToRead list. Below is the first stack of books I have started to read this summer. Since I am not working on any classes this summer,  the plan is to read and annotate  more articles, e-books, and other literary finds I have been collecting and storing in my Delicious and in my Good Reads account. Get ready for some EXTREME READING!

Although my goals are to move forward on my dissertation proposal, I know that I am not alone in setting reading goals for the summer months. Both the NY Times and Grad Hacker want to kick off the #summerreading social media campaign on June 7th. I was able start on my summer reading list early with the help of my recent travel plans – so I am always looking to add book recommendations (both for research and fun).

What books are you reading? What’s on YOUR #summerreading list? What books do you recommend?

  1. Hi Laura. Good stack of books you’ve got there. The top and bottom books are sitting next to me. [UBD never goes unused for more than a few days.]

    I’m back to “Disrupting Class” (Christensen, Johnson, Horn) after reading it a couple years ago. It seems more relevant than ever, and a must-read for anyone looking at a career in education.

    Happy reading.

    Mike
