QUOTES FOR YOUR REFERENCE - Old paint on a canvas, as it ages, sometimes becomes transparent. When this happens, it is possible, in some pictures, to see the original lines: a tree will show through a womans dress, a child makes way for a dog, a large boat is no longer on an open sea. That is called pentimento….Perhaps it would be as true to say that the old conception, replaced by a later choice, is a way of seeing and then seeing again.Lillian Hellman (1973)

If I have any strengths as a scientist, one of them is this: I love to pore over the data....I just sit there and analyse it this way and that. Graph it this way, graph it that way. I can sit for hours, just as happy as can be. Thats the secret of doing science. You cant imagine how profoundly important it is to sit and go through that material, and go through it so you can really understand...to gain it at an intuitive level. (in Johnson 1991, 28.)

"Active learning is messy; understanding this can help us to identify with our students who are going through this process too." Suzanne Pelletier (Teacher Researcher)

//**COULD ALL PROJECT PARTICIPANTS PLEASE READ THE ATTACHED PDF.**// //**THIS IS THE ASIA LITERACY NATIONAL STATEMENT AND MAY SUPPORT YOU IN YOUR WORK.**// //**Hi all, Take a look at the attached if you have time. It shows how the Tfel (Teaching for Effective Learning) framework,**// //**frames the Tfel 'domains'. I think you will find Domain one interesting and its position in relation to the other domains.**// //**I see this framing as linked to teachers as co learners, with students, with each other and within our own lifelong learning goals and objectives as well as a bigger picture view of our learning community (school) and cluster. Any views?**//
