It's your party,I can cry if I want to. Most learning, in my early life at least, has come fairly easily to me. Sitting in my bloggin' class last month I was pretty frustrated and I began to speculate about those students for whom learning does not come so readily. Are they sitting in the classroom, eyes glazed over, heads ready to explode, bodies prepared to spontaneously combust? No wonder idle chit chat, clowning and outright disruption result. After all, I have a long history of academic success and some hope that attentiveness, application and sheer stubbornness will allow me to triumph. Many of them have no such experience to draw upon.
