Seminar

Filed under: — Aprille @ 4:30 pm

I’ve been in a seminar all day on the topic of learning portfolios.  It’s geared toward faculty, which means I don’t have tons to contribute, but it’s been pretty interesting anyway.  We had to do this exercise:

Teaching : Learning   is as

________ : ________

I said as filling a gas tank is to parallel parking.  You give somebody the basic resources, then he/she has to use his/her skills to synthesize it into something useful.  Those exercises are kind of silly, but it’s better than sitting at my desk.

The seminar is all day tomorrow, too.  I need to update my voice mail, because I think I have a bunch of messages waiting for me.  Giving people an off-putting greeting helps with that a lot.

Also:  Denny’s back!  Yay!  I fetched him at the airport last night.  He got in early, but luckily I arrived early too, so it was well-timed.  I gave him his romantic Snickers but he wasn’t hungry.  I think he may have brought it to work today.
