There are lots of things that sometimes I have trouble reading into. This class has helped me read between the lines much more efficiently than I previously have before. I'm still working on that skill, so thanks for explaining further!Sarah Nell Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02279851069247031501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615952602159565028.post-38126898005398320062011-04-06T09:24:51.077-05:002011-04-06T09:24:51.077-05:00"To me, learning is doing. I absolutely have ..."To me, learning is doing. I absolutely have to apply what I learn or else it goes in one ear and out the other as soon as I take that class's exam." I think this is true for everyone and every "subject." So I hope (and expect) you will teach in a way that allows experience to rule.<br /><br />You understand that there is a "deeper meaning" in Johnson's post and you identify one of those "meanings." But I am not sure that you understand that Tom Johnson's post <a href="http://pencilintegration.blogspot.com/2010/07/dont-let-them-take-pencils-home.html" rel="nofollow">Don't Let Them Take the Pencils Home</a> was a metaphor in which pencils were computers.

I totally agree with your thoughts on Morga...Sarah,<br />I totally agree with your thoughts on Morgan Bayda's blog post. I feel the same way! It is so sad to me that students have lowered their expectations of education. Not only are they wasting time and money, but it's going to harm the generations to come, especially if those students are future educators. We need to strive to be a part of the change that the educational system needs. It has to start somewhere and it needs to happen soon! I don't blame Dan Brown for dropping out of school, but this doesn't need to happen! Good post, thanks for sharing.Samantha Fleminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12340407466608741182noreply@blogger.com
