Recent Education Blog PostsA Cornucopia of Tools 2by K_REY_C31 Oct 2011 09:47 PM Yesterday I started to talk about some tools that have served me well over the years. I talked about operating systems (of which I strongly prefer GNU+Linux), and an office suite (of which I strongly prefer LibreOffice). A Cornucopia of Toolsby K_REY_C30 Oct 2011 10:38 AM I know that it is Halloween time now, but Autumn gets me thinking about Thanksgiving. While it is an American holiday (with a somewhat simplified history), the general idea of being thankful for things is a positive practice for anyone. Thanksgiving gives me a warm feeling. Being Ready for Anythingby K_REY_C29 Oct 2011 10:24 PM One of the things you can always count on is change. I realized this recently. I have a rather odd job that I'm not going to get into here (as it isn't that important), but the reality of my particular position is that there is occasionally time when there is literally nothing to do. Resistance and Fearby K_REY_C28 Oct 2011 10:59 AM I've been experiencing resistance lately. Not as a student, but as a teacher (of sorts). I've been trying to get a quite varied group of adults to count to twenty together. I could explain everything to them. I could give them a handout illustrating the purpose and the benefits of the exercise. Time to Readby K_REY_C27 Oct 2011 09:15 AM Things I used to take for granted as a student/parent number 1: time to read. For better or for worse reading is one of those activities you simply can't do around children. Oh, I'm not talking about reading picture books or texts with simple words and basic sentence structures. No, no. Schedules Flip-Flopby K_REY_C26 Oct 2011 12:28 PM Last time I talked about the nice and steady scheduling that educational environments provide for their students. Sure, it's rough sometimes. Sure, there are night classes. Schedulesby K_REY_C25 Oct 2011 09:48 AM One of the things about high school that was true was the consistency. You showed up every day at a certain time. You left every day at a certain time. You had classes in-between those times. The Right Timeby K_REY_C24 Oct 2011 05:48 PM Sometimes you've just got to be in the right place at the right time. Sometimes, though, you can increase your odds of being in the right place at the right time if you constantly hang around the right place. (Did you follow that? If not, read it again. The HS Visitby K_REY_C23 Oct 2011 09:33 AM High school was a long time ago for me. It's hard to forget the memories though. The Daily Breakby K_REY_C22 Oct 2011 04:53 PM For a long period of time over the past summer (pretty much the whole summer), I was tucked away in a basement writing portions of what will become my dissertation. Writing a paper of any length can provide difficulties, and dissertations are no different. Difficulties abound. |
