    Obstacles As Leverage

    by
    In the world today, it is common practice to view the many obstacles present in everyday life as forces which hold us back or prevent us from reaching a certain goal. We are used to being deterred from our paths because we “know” that there will always be “obstacles to overcome”. The idea of Education ...

    Ed Parkour

    by
    Parkour has been defined as “the sport of traversing environmental obstacles by running, climbing, or leaping rapidly and efficiently.” Educational Parkour, a concept by Bill Genereux, entails using all elements of education as a type of leverage to get us to where we would like to be.  In “Who is Ed Parkour?” he compares this ...

    Semiotics & Making Meaning.

    by
    By definition, semiotics is the study of signs and symbols and their use or interpretation. But this short (and very simple) definition does not seem to do the word justice. Even explaining it as the “signifier/signified” does not suffice. Today in class we discussed how to recognize the meaning of something, by looking at more ...

    Who is Ed Parkour??

    by
    Who or rather what is Ed Parkour?? Well let’s begin with the definition of parkour. According to Bill Genereux, parkour is “the sport of traversing environmental obstacles by running, climbing, or leaping rapidly and efficiently”. Now you may ask, “Where does the Ed come into play?” Well ‘ed’ is short for education. That’s right, I’m talking ...

    I tend to fall a lot…so I might as well fall in love with Ed Parkour

    by
    What an amazing concept! Bill Genereux ”The definition of parkour, according to Merriam-Webster Dictionary is: par·kour: the sport of traversing environmental obstacles by running, climbing, or leaping rapidly and efficiently” I believe today, we need to think of education in new and exciting ways. Many students are so interested in sports and adventure; so why not get ...

    Sharing limited space with two other girls is hard enough, but add in the fact that the three of us love to eat leaves limited space for snacks. Here is our cramped snack draw…I easily lose my food in there! The worst part is you haven’t seen our other cabinets or fridge/freezer!       ...

    Catching up on all manner of lateness

    by
    While I continue to limp my way along this whole process, I have failed to actually update or post things  in anything even remotely resembling a timely manner.  For the sake of efficiency, here are a few things should probably have been on here days or even weeks ago, all in one convenient superpost.

    I think majority of the difficulty in the classroom is lack of experience. Take our class as an example. Most of us have no idea how to set up a blog, let alone, how to use it after we finally created it. I think dipping into new portals of learning are intimidating which is why … Continue reading
