    “Skills for Life” literacy tutors are increasingly under pressure to demonstrate learner progression by meeting the requirements of the National Literacy Tests at Level 1 and Level 2. They experience a tension between providing creative ‘learner-centred’ teaching and learning experiences, and the pressure of teaching to the requirements of the tests. As a result the experience of reading for pleasure is in danger of being pushed to the margins of group and individual learner experiences and viewed as time-consuming and inappropriate as a class activity.

    Tomorrow I'm going to be a senior in college.

    Where did the time go?
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not.

    I suppose it wasn't much. Typical in me.

    Hey, tomorrow I'll be a senior at a retirement home and still don't know where the time's gone...


    And for today's random thought:

    Bloom, Petty notes, “...split learning into a ‘spectrum’ of tasks or skills which he called ‘taxonomy’. At the bottom, the skills are relatively undemanding but they get more difficult, more connected and much more useful towards the top.” and “... learning is only complete for a given topic when all the skills in the taxonomy are attained.”

    I wonder why I can't find it within my grasp the goal of slumber

    If anyone's ever heard of Tupelo Honey, Corb Lund or Glass Tiger, you might be interested to know that I got to security guard them today (there are benefits involved in having a dad who is the largest man in town and who is therefore appointed head of security at every local festival). Glass Tiger was cool, very eighties and their drummer wore a superman t-shirt.
