First, I’d like to wish everyone a Happy New Year!
Second, since I wasn’t planning on writing something of my own, I thought I would reward you for stopping by by offering you some links to good posts I read today:
- The Animal School: A fable from A Day in Our Lives.
- Working and Learning at Home from Here in the Bonny Glen.
- Chose to homeschool. (HT: Daryl)
- And this: (HT: Carlotta) On the other hand, I don’t think that people become competent by mindless memorization and repetition of factoids, which is the way many people from so-called “traditional” backgrounds were instructed. Most of my students from Southern and Eastern Asia were schooled in such a way. They work very hard, but they stumble just as badly as their American born peers when asked what they think.
Finally, if I’m a bit spotty over the next week or 2 it is because I mostly took the last couple weeks off before beginning a job search in earnest. The decision I arrived at today was that each day I would choose 1 job to apply for each day.
Blessings on your job hunt!
