It's interesting to see people learning stuff around me all day long. Some ideas seem to take forever to sink in. Other ideas are snatched up and owned instantly. Sometimes I want to pull my hair out after teaching a math lesson. Then, a week later, everyone seems to be solving the problems pretty much independently. I love making adjustments to my teaching as I think about how the learning's going. Lots of times I have to say, Let's back up a minute. This isn't working. What if we did it this other way? The Thirdlanders are usually patient about that. They're good peeps. Best learners I know.

Indeed! This is what learning is about.
I can't stop seeing the fingers -- waxy, dead fingers here -- wrapped around a ball of decay.
