Wow! I had no idea that there was a Conversation Man or a Conversation Week. I spent many years as a high school English teacher. Now that I’m retired, the conversations I had with my students are what I miss most. I still keep up with over a hundred of them on Facebook, but face-to-face conversations are still better. Now I’m inspired to find some ways to put conversations back in my life!
I find some of my most meaningful conversations are with children. They’re truthful and don’t pre-edit their responses. You know that they say exactly what they mean.
Could someone please repost Ron’s article about the Learning Project Plan (LPP)? I loved that tool so much which helped me create organization from chaos!
