ANGER: A farmer out in his field sees the plane and again thinks about the new runway at the end of the field, with a flight path right over his farmhouse. He’s received no response to his complaint letters. Seeing [...]

DAY 4: My Mission Statement In Life
September 4th, 2010 · No Comments · my world, remembery
How does one write a personal Mission Statement? Oh, wait. There’s the part that comes before that, developing a life’s mission. This is a one-day task? Maybe. Probably not. In my case it took only a couple of hours. That was 35 years ago. It still works for me today. But I’ve never done the [...]

retirement: a multiple choice test
August 12th, 2010 · No Comments · my world, remembery
A former colleague and I were email-discussing how best to construct multiple choice tests. I don’t care any more, really, having retired from teaching, but the discussion came out of his inquiries about best-practices. The talk turned to best-use and best construction of distractors (i.e. the not-correct answer choices in the list of multiple choices). [...]

retirement goal: become a Child Who Knows
April 20th, 2010 · No Comments · for fun, my world, remembery
“But the adult is not the highest stage of development. The end of the cycle is that of the independent, clear-minded, all-seeing Child. That is the level known as wisdom.
