http://transprovincialism.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Thanksgiving Day, I made cranberry sauce, stuffing, and pumpkin cheesecake bars. I also hand-squeezed 29 limes to make Honduran-style limeade. Not the best idea I ever had, but I was proud of myself nonetheless. Michael worked a full day. Each night ended with a get-together: Thursday with the Viera extension, Friday with the primos, and Saturday with an old friend. Sunday, we were exhausted. There was plenty more to do: laundry, dishes, schoolwork. We came home from c...The A...

http://transprovincialism.blogspot.com/2014/12/paolo-freire.html
Tuesday, October 7, 2014. For a long time now, I've seen folks quote Freire though I never knew exactly who he was or why he was so famous.

Monday, December 8, 2014. Again, we were asked to profile a figure in adult education history, and this time I chose Jack Mezirow.

http://transprovincialism.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 10, 2014. The individual or the society? Our professor asked us to pose ourselves a question. And then to write an annotation of an article that might begin to help us answer the question. I used a question that I read in our textbook:. 8220;Should we be responding to the individual learner or to the issues and concerns of society? Or do we somehow try to do both? 8221; (Merriam and Brockett, 2007, p.89-90). What is good and what is right and what is ethical? Tuesday, October 7, 2014.
