EEE701 and EPR751 Assignment 2. Teachers engage in professional discussion. Teachers reflect on, evaluate and improve their professional knowledge and practice and engage in discussion of contemporary issues and research in education (VIT 2009).

Her as an individual. Learner; help us instill. In her the right values. Because some schoo...

Legally Mom: PHOTOBOOK

http://legallymomfritzie.blogspot.com/2011/09/photobook.html

Thursday, September 15, 2011. I just discovered photo books. And I'm hooked. Just like most moms, I've taken lots and lots of pictures of my three children. But in this age of digital photography, most of our pictures have not been printed, much less placed in albums or scrapbooks. They are just posted on Facebook and saved in my computer's hard disk. I read somewhere that it is important to edit. Your pictures before using them for your photo books. I edited mine using Picasa. Since I want a personalize...

Tuesday, June 28, 2011. A WORKING MOM'S BREASTFEEDING STORY (PART 1). B at 9 months. I'm a breastfeeding mom who has not bought a can of formula since the birth of my now 9-month old baby. I also happen to be a full-time working mom.

This is Your Brain On Awesome. Thoughts on the world from a student of the mind. The force is strong with particle physics. Remember that first time that you watched Star Wars?
