A curricular focus which asks students to evaluate their identities in the context of their communities "Children are the future!" Of course! We love to recognize the potential of our young to change the world and make it a better place, but children aren't just passive recipients of culture and education.

"I am what I know. You are what you do. We are what we learn." Professor Richard Jackson at the Boston College Lynch School of Education gave me this piece of wisdom in my first semester as a graduate student. We were talking about how not all education is created equal, and neither are all students. This might be obvious for some, but the problem still lies with you get someone to see and understand the difference when they don't....

What may look like a sprawling mess to one person might be an entire visible world to someone else.
Here, I wanted to share how my live workspace looks when I'm working on a paper and how everything you see in these pictures is germane, meaning useful, to my writing process for academic papers.

First, I know I need to see my ideas 💡organized visually👀, and an outline on a sheet of paper just isn't big enough for me to focus on, so I move to the dining table to spread out.

Every idea and claim that I put in the paper needs to be supported by some evidence, so the papers on the table are the sources, printed out, that I am referencing.

My argument for this essay I'm writing has three parts, so after getting all the sources I think I am going to need out on the table, I read through my notes on them(You'll see I use a pink ink pen to help my notes stand out and easier to read. this just happens to be the ink that made it easy for me to write and read notes on things I read.).

Next, I sort the papers into a sort of big, physical outline on the table. So when I start writing, I can walk to and touch and interact with the ideas I am writing into my essay.

All of this keeps me from getting bored with writing because it makes it more interactive for me... but if I do get distracted, I don't want to wander away from the table (or else I may not return😁😁😁).
For that reason, I keep my guitar on the table too. It serves as a paperweight most of the time, but it is also a good break activity that keeps me at the table.

My hand gets tired of playing after a while, so there's always a natural end to my breaks without using a timer or having some reminder push me when I'm not ready to re-engage fully with the ideas I'm supposed to be working with!

Breaks are important for your brain to have time to process, but you don't want to wander away too far!

Note: the assemblage of papers gets neater as the thinking around them gets neater

Trigonometry, sine, cosine, tangent, degrees, radians, confusion, oh my! When I finished my AP Calculus BC class in high school, I determined never to take another math course again. I stayed true to that sentiment for at least six years before I started to look at the usefulness of math in an entirely new way. I've always been better at literature and languages than math, but math, in many ways, can be considered a language of its own....
