FOR TODAY
\nOutside my window… <\/strong>grim weather!
\nI am thinking…<\/strong> that I’d like to get the blog going again by trying something like “The Simple Woman’s day book<\/a>”
\nI am thankful for…<\/strong> the fact that I am still in the tender first 4 months of my PhD. I feel overwhealmed, but I still have plenty of time.
\nI am learning…<\/strong> about “difficulty”, as it applies to educational objectives. How can we measure difficulty? How can we measure scaffolding?
\nI am creating…<\/strong> a big mindmap-thingy on the factors of difficulty. It is on the whiteboard behind me – I borrowed the whiteboard from Russell.
\nI am going…<\/strong> to Kempo tonight. I wish I didn’t feel nervous, but I still always do. It make me not want to go, even though I’m sure it’ll be fine.
\nI am reading…<\/strong> papers about competence and competence structures in Human Resources. They are pretty useless and don’t consider enablement at all.
\nI am hoping…<\/strong> that Kempo is good tonight.
\nI am hearing…<\/strong> a debate about how to get people to publish research openly on the web in html rather than in closed journals and pdf.
\nAround the lab…<\/strong> things are fairly quiet. No one seemd to be mentioning the impending structural change, though we get emails vaguely pertaining to it every now and again.
\nOne of my favorite things…<\/strong> is that I brought Russell’s buckyballs to the lab and have enjoyed fiddling with them.
\nA few plans for the rest of the week: sort Sudo’s pet insurance…. Kempo….umm, oh, we are in the process of sorting out the bathroom at home. We have taken off the wallpaper now.
\nFrom my camera…<\/strong> a picture of my favourite bucky ball arrangement!<\/p>\n
