There are certainly a few people who have sent me book proposals recently who are writing just for themselves so I have sent them off to do a blog instead. That said, you pick a point - and I think one is all that is needed in a blog - and run with it and it does make you think. Not angry or take action or change your mind - just think. So, if that is your purpose, then well done. I even know who Partick Thistle are now. <br /><br />One of things I like best about the connected world is following the connections - your lists of other blogs, for example, is impressive!<br /><br />Hope that helps - keep up the good work.<br /><br />@ThatIanGilbert<br /><br />(And the box thing was me from a Tweet!)Ianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671680081270041749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2742565594266681912.post-58233803952199057272011-05-06T05:07:37.137-07:002011-05-06T05:07:37.137-07:00And is it not symptomatic of the fact that we wait...And is it not symptomatic of the fact that we wait, perhaps, thirty years to realise what we should have learned all along. Madness not to take something from that. Yet we return to school and perpetuate the same old myths...Another Rambling Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15238277114427297165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2742565594266681912.post-12981058754856033862011-05-06T03:15:07.118-07:002011-05-06T03:15:07.118-07:00Your point about how we seek interest and to recha...Your point about how we seek interest and to recharge our batteries by involving ourselves in the so-called minority (from an education pov)is so true. We find it easier to compartmentalise than to try something new in schools... hence the reason we have such distinct departments (in secondary school, certainly), when most learning is not limited in this way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
