  1. Public Engagement in the Effective Health Care Program Jean Slutsky Director, Center for Outcomes and Evidence AHRQ Annual Meeting Bethesda, MD September 27, 2010

  2. Donald Schön, 1983 • “In the varied topography of professional practice, there is a high, hard ground, where practitioners can make effective use of research-based theory and techniques, and there is a swampy lowland where the situations are confusing ‘messes’ incapable of technical solution. The difficulty is that the problems of the high ground, however, great their technical interest, are often relatively unimportant to clients or the larger society while in the swamp are the problems of greatest human concern.”

  3. Obama, iPad, and the value of information in 21c democracy (and business) • “What Jefferson recognized [is] … that in the long run, their improbable experiment — called America — wouldn’t work if its citizens were uninformed, if its citizens were apathetic, if its citizens checked out, and left democracy to those who didn’t have the best interests of all the people at heart. It could only work if each of us stayed informed and engaged, if we held our government accountable, if we fulfilled the obligations of citizenship.”
