task three, reflection
I am not sure yet where my focus is, all of this touches me, Leonid Fridman's "America Needs Its Nerds" and "In praise of the F Word", grabbed my attention the most. Kozel interests me greatly, however, I think there is to much information there to be examined. I could do a lot of research for this one, in fact, I talked to my son's science teacher briefly on the subject and there is to much to put in an essay. I am still thinking about it. I am thinking about going large and using both of these essays.

Hi Penny,
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are still searching, which is ok. We just need to narrow down what you are interested in. You could choose to discuss a teacher' role as you did in the last blog entry and tie it in with what Kozol has to say. If so, narrow it down to if you are talking about good and bad teachers. You may also take a second look at Russel Baker's "School vs. Education." He discusses what a child learns by observing a parent, watching TV and a teacher's duty.
