– a Singaporean teacher's storeroom 🖖
often we wish each other “have a restful weekend”, but more often than not, we teachers know at the back of our mind the many things that’s waiting for us to catch up with. so, how can one (possibly) achieve a restful state? it’s all in the mind we believe #thinkaboutit
came to us during the chit-chat this morning, and here’s the summary:
“Restful(ness) is in the state of mind”
cite as (Tan & Nonis, 2020)
have a restful weekend if you are reading this (:
was browsing the book that i’ve gotten recently, and saw the above/below:
this is one of the making thinking visible strategies to facilitate deeper thinking. shall save it for our future meeting that requires participants’ pre-reading (:
当我们写道：“我们请一组（学生）来 呈 xian4”，我们其实指的是“我们请一组（学生）来作报告”；英文作”Let’s invite a group (of students) to present (their work)”。那当我们想使用呈xian4时，应该是“呈现”还是“呈献”呢？
《现代汉语词典（第7版）》第167页的截图如下:
从这两个定义来看，或许“献”是更贴近我们所指的。
当然，语言的使用是约定俗成的，或许未来现汉（第8版）会收录“现”与“献”同当指present(ation)时也说不定。
until then (:
had the chance to attend the above congress these 2 days, and today i finally get to hear, meet, and learn from Will Richardson in person (:
it’s been a long way back in the read/write web days that i’ve learnt from Will. he has since become an inspiration to educators worldwide. thank you for the sharing of ideas and experiences on learning and changing schools today. cheers!
收拾装箱和论文写作的共同点就是两者都会到达饱和点，就再也不能继续下去了 :O
packing and thesis writing are the same in that both can reach a point of saturation where you just have to stop :O
