John's Indy Teach Revelations: Best practice to me had only an application in the business world. Working in sales we used it as an overall tactic to keep the customers happy and make money. John's presentation put a different spin on it for me. I now view Best practice as any method or means of providing an effective classroom setting. The outcome would be kids learning to become better writers. It also made me think about different classroom settings and workshop methods. This is a very valuable tool as an educator and should be utilized.
Brian's Indy Teach Review: The journal and writing prompts were fantastic. The process through each one tied in well with the next. Writing from personal experience is very powerful and as the prof stated, writers are not separated from their own lives.
GOOD LUCK TEAM ACTIVE RACERS AT ITHACA!!

Dan,
It's great to see you back online. I also love the way your class blogging is intermingled with your other life goal and interests. In some ways, this achieves what we strive to do as good writers, which is reflect our own lives through our writing. Your blog helps us to not only see you as a future teacher of writing, but as a whole, intriguing, well-rounded person overall. I've enjoyed reading your blog so far, and look forward to future posts.
