Modern Classics: Great Books Make Great Movies

http://modern-classics.blogspot.com/2006/12/great-books-make-great-movies.html

Wednesday, December 13, 2006. Great Books Make Great Movies. I've always been a huge fan of movies based on my favorite y.a. books - and traditionally, the movie's stay true to the book, but make it readily available to a wider audience.

Modern Classics: September 2006

http://modern-classics.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html

Sunday, September 24, 2006. Pop Fiction" vs. The Classics. True, some classics are required by school districts, but, increasingly, I see teachers making substitutions. In a time when some of my colleagues are turning away from the classics and assigning pop fiction novels, because they're easier to read and kids like them, this Steinbeck novel led me to reflect on the advantages of "plowing through" a classic work with students. Why wouldn't kids be more interested in "pop fiction"? So, when my juniors ...

Old Man Dragonfly: Henry Louis Gates; a long over-due post

http://oldmandragonfly.blogspot.com/2006/10/henry-louis-gates-long-over-due-post.html

Wednesday, October 18, 2006. Henry Louis Gates; a long over-due post. Certainly not current news, but still bouncing around in my mind, is the Academic Lecture on September 14 th.

And 3rd chapters ("Barriers to Equity" by Kathleen Fulton and Robert Sibley, and "Factors of the Divide by Karin M. Wiburg. Toward Digital Equity ed. Gwen Solomon and others.

Sunday, November 19, 2006. In one last tribute to David Warlick, a compliment he received. From a conference attendee really struck a chord with me:. He kept saying how right my address was, that it wasn’t about the stuff, it wasn’t about the technology, that it was about the information, that the kids figure out the technology for themselves. They need us to teach them how to work the information. November 17, 2006 at 10:58 am. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Transcendental Running Club

Tuesday, October 27, 2009. However.a good mud run and a new goal seem to cure all. The trails at Erwin were awful this past weekend. There was a ton of really muddy sections. Rather than a fast paced training run, it turned into a much needed reminder of why I love this sport so very much. I was muddy, I had my best friends in tow and I hooped and hollered nearly the entire loop. There will be a few adventures this Fall, but the focus has shifted to the Bandera 100K.

The Transcendental Saunterer | a Christian mystic's expedition into life

A Christian mystic's expedition into life. July 4, 2015. July 4, 2015. In Matthew 5:9 it says that peacemakers are blessed, and I was curious about this word, peacemaker. In Greek it is. And etymologically its root is. If we are supposed to be building this thing called peace, I’d like know what I’m building. I looked into this word. Some of the Quakers back then believed in the inherent dignity of enslaved black men and women so deeply in their spirits, despite what society said about these men and wome...
