Christopher H. Whittle (born 1959) is an educator and paleontologist who has published on a wide variety of topics including the development of paranormal beliefs, learning from popular television, museum studies, and dinosaur paleontology (Nedcolbertia, gastroliths). He graduated with a B.S. degree in earth sciences from the University of Massachusetts Boston, an Ed.M. from Harvard University, and a Ph.D. from the University of New Mexico. Whittle worked in the Boston Public Schools, on the Navajo Indian Reservation, and has been a faculty member at numerous community colleges and universities. Whittle was on the faculty at The Jefferson School in Georgetown, Delaware. He recently directed the educational programs at VisionQuest Morning Star Youth Academy in Woolford, Maryland. Dr. Whittle is researching new models of schooling while a student at Johns Hopkins University. The goal of the research is to develop a 21st-century school model that truly accommodates all stakeholder needs. Current school models are not family friendly, do not provide teachers the resources and time they need to develop, implement, and assess quality teaching materials, and do not provide all students with the range of academic, domestic, personal, vocational, and recreational training they need to be successful and productive members of society upon graduation. ==Partial bibliography== *Whittle, C.H.
