$ fortune | cowsay _________________________________________ / A book is the work of a mind, doing its \ | work in the way that a mind deems best. | | That's dangerous. Is the work of some | | mere individual mind likely to serve | | the aims of collectively accepted | | compromises, which are known in the | | schools as 'standards'? Any mind that | | would audaciously put itself forth to | | work all alone is surely a bad example | | for the students, and probably, if not | | downright antisocial, at least a little | | off-center, self-indulgent, elitist. | | ... It's just good pedagogy, therefore, | | to stay away from such stuff, and use | | instead, if film-strips and | | rap-sessions must be supplemented, | | 'texts,' selected, or prepared, or | | adapted, by real professionals. Those | | texts are called 'reading material.' | | They are the academic equivalent of the | | 'listening material' that fills | | waiting-rooms, and the 'eating | | material' that you can buy in thousands | | of convenient eating resource centers | | along the roads. | | | \ -- The Underground Grammarian / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
