Everything I Needed to Learn, I Learned in Kindergarten

Put things back

Be aware of wonder. Remember the little

seed in the Styrofoam cup: the roots go down and the plant goes up

and nobody really knows how or why, but

we are all like that

When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together

Remember the Dick-and-Jane books and the first word

you learned - the biggest word of all - LOOK

Do you have an ethical obligation to share?

To whom do you have that obligation?

Should I share?

With who?

Why Share?

To Build Community

Professional Responsibility

“To work with colleagues in mutually supportive ways and develop effective professional relationships with members of the educational community.”

“A commitment to the value and quality of research

carries with it a responsibility to extend the circulation of such work as far as possible and ideally to all who are interested in it and all

who might profit by it .”(p. xii)

Sharing my work online has become a huge part of the way I learn. Those connections make it possible for me to gain a bigger audience, which means, more feedback and more learning. A lot more people are finding me now.
