I appreciate the feedback from actual teachers. My own teaching experience amounted only to being a troop information lecturer in the U.S. Army, a class that everyone viewed as a chance to get a little shut-eye, no one more than the lecturer.<br /><br />smiles,<br />rbRobert Braulthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10075269686047305038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655370700688657486.post-14834963995496942452009-09-27T21:52:07.156-07:002009-09-27T21:52:07.156-07:00Thank you, Robert. When I go to school tomorrow, I will try to do more drawing out, and less pounding in. <br /><br />&quot;Your pleasure in the saying does not come from having learned something but from having something you knew elucidated and confirmed.&quot; Yes! That is exactly why I love quotes!<br /><br />And of course I loved the one about political parties getting their lie together. Ah. Maybe I should start a new blog devoted solely to my rants about politics. :)Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16746936407430428943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655370700688657486.post-52522671963526451562009-09-27T20:07:09.583-07:002009-09-27T20:07:09.583-07:00oops ...in sync -with- YeatsMariahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11196112590905903539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655370700688657486.post-50335081987122567752009-09-27T20:05:53.739-07:002009-09-27T20:05:53.739-07:00&quot;Be still and know that I am God&quot; Simple &amp; yet profound.<br /><br />Love the education quotes... <br />So many times I find that I am the student -<br />and they are my teachers...<br /><br />...very much in sync Yeats: Education is not filling a bucket but lighting a fire...<br /><br />On to enjoy the last of September~ MariaMariahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11196112590905903539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655370700688657486.post-51258138723748179982009-09-27T19:15:56.508-07:002009-09-27T19:15:56.508-07:00Liz,<br /><br />Darn it, now you&#39;ve ruined the best of the bunch. I&#39;ll never read that first one again without thinking: &quot;The word education comes from the word educe, which means to draw out. I guess that explains why classroom lectures are so drawn out.&quot; Wouldn&#39;t be bad if I had thought of it myself.<br /><br />grumps,<br />rbRobert Braulthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10075269686047305038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655370700688657486.post-4293253170013564002009-09-27T18:16:44.275-07:002009-09-27T18:16:44.275-07:00rb,<br /> I think my son would agree that &#39;educe&#39; from the word education means &#39;drawn out&#39; ....especially the way his History teacher lectures!<br /> --LizLizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07585380084930137680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655370700688657486.post-85174993684588777502009-09-27T15:26:16.584-07:002009-09-27T15:26:16.584-07:00Ken,<br />I&#39;m tickled that you found a couple of things to like.
