PEEL SEEDS was founded in 1989 as a newsletter to share ideas between the five PEEL groups that then existed. Since then it has grown into a magazine with contributions from teachers interested in PEEL from all over the world. Subscribers receive 6 -7 issues a year each containing 10 – 12 articles. School subscribers are free to copy articles for distribution to their staff. The overwhelming majority of the articles in PEEL SEEDS are written by teachers, sometimes in a PEEL group, but we welcome and have published many articles from other teachers that have a focus on improving the way students learn. Most articles describe some aspect of passive, dependant, unreflective learning that the teacher wanted to improve (or some positive learning behaviours that s/he wanted to stimulate), describe an intervention and provide a window into the classroom -student and teacher behaviours, teacher thinking – so the reader can see how it went. PEEL SEEDS depends on teachers being willing to take the time to share their practice. Articles are very welcome and can be sent to David Lumb. All authors of articles published in PEEL SEEDS are offered a complimentary copy of the PEEL SEEDS and the following year’s edition of the CD PEEL in Practice -which will contain their article. At the end of 2008 the 100th edition of PEEL SEEDS was published. Ian and Judie Mitchell, two of the founders of PEEL write “This aimed to provide readers with a sense of where PEEL has come from and how we came to be and where we are now. We approached a number of people from throughout the history of PEEL and asked them to write about a range of issues where we thought there were things that we could learn.” Please contact the PEEL office if you would like a copy of this special editon. Cost $20.00 posted.
