The Publications Committee of the RWCT International Consortium is happy to announce that the Thinking Classroom/Peremena journal has a new team of content editors, one from Canada and one from Ukraine. These people are highly experienced professionals and we expect the journal to flourish under their wise and competent guidance. The in-coming team has already joined the out-going team in preparing issue 7-1 (January, 2006) for publication.
