Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Speaking of cats,
since our migration to the summer room and its attendant redesign, Maceo does NOT know what to do. He loves the new bed we've installed (and, honestly, so do we).
Every afternoon when I come home, he's all spread out on the quilt like a emperor. When you get on the bed, he begrudingly moves. It's adorable in a snotty cat way.
ita, will you make a men in skirts site?
It would be pretty.
I'm having something of a dilemma. I need to write a "reflection" (man, I'm tired of that word) on a time I as a learner experienced a particularly effective learning environment. And I'm having some trouble coming up with one. I mean, there are classes I enjoyed, but it looks like the main thing that made those particularly effective was the subject matter. Looking at the other aspects of the "environment"... they have rather little in common.
I guess I should just pick one and go with that, but it's kind of hard to come up with "qualities that made the learning environment effective" other than, "well, the teacher was pretty nice." This would be much easier if it was meant to be about a particularly ineffective learning environment. I seem to remember those more clearly.
Well... there was fifth grade.... that was pretty effective, but it seems like a long way back.
Yes. MEN IN SKIRTS PLEASE! Also, you can add the Brad Pitt in a dress.
Hmmm.... men in skirts.
What about a learning environment outside the classroom?
From recent posts, we can plainly see that men in skirts are very effective.
Though not helpful to Emily right now.

And, I could do the research for you.
Hmm... Research.
What about a learning environment outside the classroom?
Sure, sure, that would be fine... but I can't think of any of those, either.

A class that moved outside?
When you've had to learn something on your own? At home? At the library?
Learning to drive?
I mean, there are classes I enjoyed, but it looks like the main thing that made those particularly effective was the subject matter. Looking at the other aspects of the "environment"... they have rather little in common.For me, the most compelling environments were one where the instructor and the subject matter meshed well, just made sense together. There were moments that changed everything for me when that happened and the subject mattered more to me at the end than at the beginning.
But there were others when it was obviously just the right person in the front of the room -- and it wasn't going to change my life, but it was going to change the way I looked at the subject from then on...
