The end of a new beginning: Where to start...

Well, I said it never really ends, so this is me starting at the beginning again. 

But this time a little bit older, a little bit wiser, a little bit freer, a little bit clearer... 

Or whatever thought-provoking cliche you think would fit in there.

Reflections on Topic 4: Blending learning

This topic was an interesting one, unfortunately, I was plagued by lousy internet and piles of work, and missed a meeting due to this. But we produced an excellent topic outline and created something really special in the end. What I really noticed was how scaffolding works, This idea got me thinking about a lot of things, like when we design scaffolding we design it with the intention of delivering content, we try to structure the curriculum in a way that makes sense narratively and logically. This made me think about another concept that we use in Acting. Internal narrative. What about internal scaffolding? What if we build the structure first and then fill it?  I want to investigate whether there is a universal process that can be applied to all subjects. A way of teaching that can be used by anyone to teach anything. Maybe that should be the course that I create "How to teach anything". I have been teaching for over 10 years now. From a little container school not knowing...

Reflections on Topic 5: What begins must end...

...Or must it? What if it was just a realization that it was always there, Nesting in the soil, waiting for the right foundations for its fruit to bare Like a tree breaking free of the ground only to dig deeper and deeper Its root spread around as it seeped into the mycelium's message keeper.  Now if you know anything about trees, you should see the importance of their roots in any ecosystem in regard to the vast underground network of mycelium that connects all of them in an area, providing a network to communicate with, a system of conditions, and microbial transactions, that allows the trees to in essence talk with each other. Sounds like something out of Avatar right? Well, where do you think they got the idea? It was there all along! And it is very real and very important, and if you don't know why, have a look at this blog post from the National Forrest Foundation  called  Underground Networking: The Amazing Connections Beneath Your Feet to tickle your fancy. ...

Someone once said "WRITE!" when I asked what I should do on a post one day... That was years ago, yet it stuck with me.  Inside something shouted, it wanted to come out, it wanted touch the light and breathe fresh air. It sat there at the bottom of the abyss looking up, catching glimmers of light as it reflected off the ripples of my thoughts, clutching to any hint of inspiration, creating world's upon worlds in a single moment....  Saying my imagination is wild, would be an understatement. From a young age I had already spent enough time day dreaming to constitute an entire series of epic novels. But I lacked one thing, attention. Not for me, that was easy to get as I'm a pretty dramatic person. But my focus, well it's pretty shy compared to my deficit imagination. I lacked the ability to focus, and to this day, I still battle, my mind is too busy. It doesn't stop. But instead of trying to fight it, I am going to try include it. This part of me th...
