Paying it Forward

February 19, 2006 By Will Richardson

Still not a lot of time to read and write…Wendy’s birthday today, and to celebrate we all went to the Princeton-Columbia women’s basketball game last night where we met Super Bowl winning coach Bill Cowher (whose daughter plays for Princeton) and my kids got their first autograph from someone “famous” (even though they were absolutely clueless as to why an autograph is something of interest.) Tom’s jealous, I’m sure.

Anyway, the post of the week had to be Darren’s report of the student who had just passed Pre Calculus suddenly showing up unsolicited on the blog of the next semester class offering to mentor the new group on blogging commenting and a bit of calc as well. I mean really, how cool is that? And then he followed it up with links to some student scribe posts that are nothing short of amazing. Good stuff.

Is it me, or are things starting to click in classrooms a bit more these days? I can’t wait ’til I feel like I have enough time to process it more completely…
