What am I doing on here.

main(){ cout << 'Hello World' << endl; return 0; }

  • So I'm a geek.
  • I am a few more things but a big geek.
  • I geek-out on learning.

I've been in university in some shape or form for the last 10 years. At the moment, I'm a Ph.D. candidate (in physics) but I hope that changes. I've been a learner for so long; now I want to teach. I've applied to the local university (MSVU) last week. I think my chances of getting in are good.

I've decided to blog because I've run across some great blogs about teaching (Dy/Dan, f(t), Tales from the Chalk Line, etc). I'm hopping I can document my experience from the start of my application to Education straight through to retirement. During my friends B.Ed. she wrote a great many of reflections. I might as well start reflecting now.

I want to get as much as I can out of this blog
  • a sense of communtiy with other teachers in the blog-o-sphere
  • a place to reflect on teaching
  • other people scrutanizing my grammar and language (which needs a healthy dose of critique).
  • I want to stop using "I" in every sentence.
Cheers, JaM's
