thanks Caroline

this might be of interest to wrt your point 4 Curriculum, pedagogy, lesson
plans - as well as the big picture curriculum the nitty gritty curriculum
grows out of listening diligently to student feedback lesson by lesson, one
of the things that makes transfer of a curriculum package from one site to
another so difficult

student blogging allows for such feedback - my whole lesson plan for
tomorrow is pretty much based on that and it will extend beyond tomorrow -
see this blog for more detail

the trap for busy worked trapped teachers is to rush through marking etc.
and not pause for that reflective response - part of my reason for working
part time

cheers
