This 
post is backdated to Aug 26, the date of the Education Round-Table. During the event, a large number of resources (organizations, books, links, etc.) were mentioned, and I have chased down as many as possible, so hopefully you can benefit from them. Feel free to add comments to discuss education, or to contribute more resource information, etc. Please pass the link around (http://ruberad.wordpress.com/2006/08/26/education-round-table/) to any parents that might also benefit!
