– a Singaporean teacher's storeroom 🖖
this morning a couple of us went for a Content Analysis and Grounded Theory in Qualitative Research seminar conducted by Prof Peter Taylor (CRPP), 0930-1130hr, NIE5-01-LT11. here’s my personal set of notes. some symbols to take note: (1) words in quotes are the words i think i hear during the seminar; words in [square brackets] are personal thoughts; (2) words with a question mark attached? are words that i’m not sure if i see/hear correctly 😛
p@ssword to open: password2010 the set of notes (:

was reading sti and saw this article relating minister lui’s personal experience.
‘I know my tutors would rather (have me being) able to speak 70 per cent (of the time) in Mandarin and 30 per cent in English… than not to speak Mandarin at all because I’m too shy to do so,’ he said.
yes … even if it’s is 10%, or 5%, or 1% of the time is fine (yes some pple might argue about too low a percentage). the difficulty probably lies in the NEED to converse in the language. fundamentally language exists to facilitate communications. if one language is sufficient for my daily communication needs, finding reason(s) to self-generate the NEED to use another language is often difficult.
saw this while reading will richardson‘s post on the plan, the draft US’s National Education Technology Plan 2010 is available here. will need to take some time to browse through the plan for inspirations (:
… to update your wallpaper! and yes, this is not an april fools’ joke (:
this time round smashingmagazine featured 80 fabulous choices. and it’s really quite difficult to choose just one. but if u have a few computers to work with, probably one can choose a different wallpaper for each screen.
my personal choice for this month is april sky. wat’s yours? (:
