High belief, the ability to symthesize information into new knowledge, is the new high i c so to speak. I love this idea of dual learning, the teacher learning with the student, as opposed to as some authoritative figure. We are deterministic thinkers living in a probablistic world, hilarity or tragedy often ensue. It's funny all the sincrenisities here, because i just publish an interview with the foremost expert on genetic behaviorism - robert plowman. But he was talking about parents, not teachers. The best thing a parent can do for their child is to facilitate what they show that they like, let them take their natural course.
