Invisible Learning: Now free

By John Moravec | 9/14/2011 | Filed under: Books

Cristóbal Cobo and I are pleased to announce that the Spanish edition of Invisible Learning (Aprendizaje Invisible) is now released as a free PDF download.

You can download the book at http://www.invisiblelearning.com/download

We are thankful to Hugo Pardo Kuklinski, the series coordinator, for arranging this free release, and permitting the volume to be published under a Creative Commons license — meaning that you are invited to share and remix this work with your own.

What happened to the English edition?

We have decided not to print an English edition of Invisible Learning. Translating the text into English provides not only editorial challenges, but also cultural writing style challenges. As a result, much of the book would need to be rewritten. Compounded with the fact that much of what we have written about has already changed since publication, we decided to adapt the content of Invisible Learning into two chapters of a new book, due in 2012: Knowmad Society.

Knowmad Society will contain an adapted, updated version of the first chapter in Invisible Learning (which introduces Knowmad Society). A second chapter will summarize the Invisible Learning project, including key concepts from the book. I will have more to say on Knowmad Society in the coming days. Stay tuned!
