Food is bringing a sense of place to the table with terroir
The desire to discover terroir, that special sense of place and time, is spreading to new realms bite by bite.
The terroir trail
Rowan Jacobsen will be in Spokane on May 17 for a presentation on tasting terroir across America. Details online at www.rowanjacobsen.com.
Totten Virginica oysters from Totten Inlet are available at various times through Taylor Shellfish, which has a retail shop (scheduled to open in spring) at Melrose Market on Capitol Hill. Look for them at restaurants that love local oysters; good bets are Anchovies and Olives and Elliott's Oyster House.
Harmony Orchards sells holiday gift boxes of its apples online at harmonyorchards.com. Cider from its apples can be shipped to several states, including Washington. Details at tietonciderworks.com.
Yukon River salmon is available in markets with well-stocked fish counters mid-June through August, depending on variety and size of the fish run. Check kwikpakfisheries.com for updates.
"Terroir: Meat and Grapes" events at Urban enoteca will be held July 22 and Oct. 21. Butcher Tracy Smaciarz will break down a hindquarter of Gleason Ranch beef and discuss it, followed by a three-course dinner of the beef paired with wines. Cost: $165, call 206-467-9463 for information and reservations.
Chocolopolis: 1527 Queen Anne Ave. N., Seattle; 700 110th Ave. N.E., Suite 192, Bellevue.
IT ISN'T that odd for a wine-tasting room to headline a night of terroir.
The difference at Urban enoteca is that its series on exploring terroir isn't just about wine. It's also a look at the meat from Gleason Ranch, a fifth-generation Washington farm featuring grass-fed beef as robust and rich as any cornfed cow. Star butcher Tracy Smaciarz breaks down a side of beef at the demonstrations and discusses how the flavor of the meat changes with the seasons, how it's affected by where the animals live and what they eat and the soil where they graze.
"If you were able to take the same breed of cow and bring them from four different parts of the state, they would be so vastly different," says Melissa Fant, events director for the Sodo tasting room (and Smaciarz's sister). She remembers, growing up, how the beef from their family's small homestead in Olympia tasted markedly different from even the beef at their grandfather's farm in Puyallup.
The taste of beef is affected by breed, butchery, aging and a host of other factors. But there's a growing move to recognize that it also carries its own sense of place. That word, terroir, is spreading to new realms bite by bite.
"I'd call (Gleason Ranch) beef an Outdoor Adventure beef. Somebody else's I might call Grace Kelly beef or Thinking Man's," says Carrie Oliver of the Artisan Beef Institute, who leads tastings around the country of beef from small ranches. "There are categories or styles, almost like an oaky chardonnay versus a steely one," she says.
For those who aren't entrenched in the world of wine, "terroir" can sound intimidating or precious. But it doesn't have to be.
"It captures a lot of aspects of things we're really interested in; it's shorthand for a bunch of different things," says Rowan Jacobsen, who wrote a book on the topic, "American Terroir."
"You talk to the winemakers in France or Europe who are really interested in terroir. It's not the rich guys, it's the guys who have been doing it for eight generations, and they're very humble about it.
"Cheesemakers use it, all the oyster guys use it now, they're very comfortable with it."
Honey, coffee and chocolate are all affordable ways to explore terroir. Check out the Chocolopolis stores in Queen Anne and Bellevue, for instance, where owner Lauren Adler classifies chocolates by which part of the world they come from, and can talk about the different tastes of the cacao beans grown in each region.
The Northwest is rich with native examples — "an eating paradise," Jacobsen says, with more geographic diversity than anywhere else on the coasts.
Researching his book, he highlighted the terroir of Harmony Orchards in Tieton, northwest of Yakima, an unusual outpost in "the greatest and most counterintuitive, apple-growing region on the continent." The wind-swept orchard is stationed at one of the highest altitudes of any in the country, with desert-like days and cold nights that keep insects at bay.
Jacobsen also walked the oyster beds of Totten Inlet in Puget Sound, smelling what he called the Totten smell, a "bouillabaisse of fennel, pine nuts, dried fruit and fish oil." The flavors of its shellfish are a function of "geography and geology," he wrote, affected by the salty water that runs strong there despite the 200 miles separating the inlet from the open ocean, and from the nitrogen and other nutrients washed in from the surrounding land.
Jacobsen also visited the Yu'pik tribe in Emonak, Alaska, whose Yukon River salmon he first found at a trade show: Easily "the best fish I'd ever put in my mouth; rich with nutty and flowery macadamia notes and an oystery sea flavor."
Almost by definition, most foods with a particular terroir aren't mass-produced. Mix together the foods from different growing areas and that signature taste gets blurred.
The small number of Gleason Ranch cattle available, for instance, meant Canlis restaurant had to work with the ranchers to get its prime cuts for the fine-dining restaurant's menu. The meat isn't available year-round the way most steaks are. (Canlis will have it at various points after the spring, summer and fall slaughters this year.) It doesn't taste exactly the same throughout the year.
Since there's plenty of cow left over after the prime cuts are used, Canlis committed to regularly buying cattle and helping sell the rest of it, like the hamburger meat, to other chefs and friends. But it's worth it, says co-owner Mark Canlis, because it's got a flavor like nowhere else.

Slow-Roasted Salmon
Serves 4 to 6
2 pounds salmon fillets*
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon ground coriander
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
Wedges of lime or balsamic vinegar
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Place fillets on an aluminum foil-covered baking pan (for easy cleanup). Dust with salt and coriander. Let sit while the oven warms.
Roast salmon for 30 to 40 minutes, depending how rare you want it.
Remove fillets from oven, sprinkle with mint and lime or vinegar.
*Jacobsen recommends a rich salmon like Yukon or Copper River. King salmon can break the bank, but note that Yukon keta salmon is far less expensive and also remarkably rich. It doesn't deserve the bad rap that some keta gets.

I like books that have interesting characters and easy to follow plots. For example, Cormoran Strike, is a great character for me.
Simultaneously horrifying and compelling. How could a book about such a horrible disease be such a page turner but it is. The story is riddled with personal anecdotes and stories about how the treatment of cancer progressed step by painful step. Learning how cancer cells work was a revelation but not for the unscientific minded. The review of transcription and how retroviruses work can be daunting but worth the attention. The fact that at any moment the genes of one cell can be influenced by various external factors, change their configuration, free itself from the normal constraints of the body and go wild, is a sobering thought. The thought I am left with is that these cancer cells are like evil dopplegangers lurking in the shadows to take over my body. If you are going to listen to one non-fiction book this year, this should be it.
I enjoyed this book thoroughly. There were parts that were so repulsive that I almost had to stop listening but I persevered and was rewarded with one of the funniest, fascinating books I've ever listened to. The reader was particularly good. She captured the dark humor side of the book. How can we go wrong when a book lists the most common ways of testing a corpse for truly being dead including a red-hot poker up the butt?

When we received the faucets I was so excited. If they were anything like the pictures I was going to be happy. Unfortunately the faucets were a lot wider than they appear in the photo. The faucets are nice and heavy duty but possibly too wide for what we were looking for.
The picture is slightly deceiving. I thought the faucet would be thinner than it appears in the photo. But once the faucets were installed with our vessel sinks it fit perfectly!
The faucet looks great the only problem with it is that when you turn the faucet on the water is very loud.
The faucet was at our door within days of ordering. My husband had not trouble installing it. It looks absolutely amazing and works wonderful.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
I'm sorry, this isn't type related . I had to tell somebody. I just found this incredible foreign film, called A Tale of Two Sisters, based on a Korean folk tale. This movie was infinitely better that any of the recent crop of Asian Cinema remakes. I almost had, and I mean HAD, to hit the power button on my dvd player a couple of times. Also better than Ju-On, and it's remake The Grudge. Genuinely classy, creepy and scary, all in the right places.
I can relate to that... "Our" MTV recently started showing Asian movies (mostly Korean) on weekend nights and I was pleasantly surprised by their quality. The stories may be familiar but the way they are visualized is just awesome.
Too bad that the regular channels don't carry many Korean movies.
I just added it to my Netflix queue on your recommndation, since I'm always up for a scary flick. Interesting side note: the poster (cover?) looks a bit different on Netflix. I guess it makes sense: bloody vs. not bloody = Korean vs. American (we like the killing, but don't want anyone to see it...?).
I watch Korean soaps and epics regularly, often preferring ones without subtitles for the former, since my imagination makes them less predictable. BTW, have you guys seen "301/302"? That story was definitely not "familiar"! :-)
hooray for foreign films! if only hollywood were so good. i watched "Shall We Dance?" again this weekend with the folks -- the Japanese version. I'm almost afraid to watch the hollywood version to see what they've done to it. i myself am a bollywood fanatic. for a good B horror movie with great music and dance sequences you gotta watch "Gumnaam," part of which is featured in the opening of "Ghost World."
Best foreign film I've seen in a long time: City of God (Cidade de Deus). It's incredible.
Hrant, I try to watch Korean TV at home, but then my wife throws things at me. Same goes for the Spanish-language station.
The standard WS edition was toned down, the 'super special extended immaculately conceived ultra high-res super-duper extra-bloody' edition has blood on it, like its Korean counterpart.
I got confused for a minute, I thought the bloody one was for the US release. It's usually the other was around tho, isn't it ? Don't we usually get smacked with the dumbed down version of things, other than vice versa. The cover was one of the reasons I picked it up. Non-bloody version. Just seemed to have a little more of a 'what is happening in this picture' feel about it.
Seems stronger message wise to not have the blood. Hmm?
Let me know how you like it ...
Oh, and BTW, that new film 'Dark Water' w/Jennifer Connolly, is also a remake.
Interesting. I guess I assumed that because I've gotten screwed by U.S. rental and retail video chains renting/selling the not-very-clearly-indicated edited/censored versions of foreign films and not even offering the full versions.
Though, now that I think about it, it's really the sexual content that gets snipped out. Which is true over all U.S. media. I should've guessed.
(I'm also resentful of the coverage of the Iraq war, so that's the big reason for my little gripe.)
"What war?"
Oh, right. I forgot. I meant the rebuilding efforts against insurgent activities.
Recently there has been a lot of Korean movies showing on Swedish cinemas, including A tale of two sisters.
One I would highly recommend is Old Boy by Chan-wook Park. It's one of the weirdest, strongest, most beautiful and disgusting films I've seen in years (and come to think of it, Santa Sangre was mainly just disgusting with a dash of weird, in comparison).
It's supposed to be the second movie in a vengeance trilogy, and friends tell me the first part, Sympathy for Mr vengeance is even better, but I somehow find that hard to believe.
Will second fredo's recommendation for Old Boy.
Had a chance to see it when it was in limited release here in NYC.
Lovely, humorous and disturbing.
Trailer here, but doesn't really do it justice:
I'm looking forward to Old Boy.
Then don't forget the shield Chris.
I'm sorry, I guess i'm not explaining myself clearly, that whole schpeal at the top was just about the cover.
The 'super special extended immaculately conceived ultra high-res super-duper extra-bloody' part was sarcasm.
The movie isn't censored, just the covers.
They say that there are two kinds of censorship for films in Korea; one for home consumption, the other for foreign. A theory has it that the censorship actually contributed to enforcing the people to visualize or to extend those parts that had been cut off, which explains well some of the success of Korean films that they enjoy these days. For Koreans had been trained en masse in audio-visual communications in that way for some decades.
Just kidding.

Names you liked for a short time
Have you ever really liked a name for some period of time, thing decided it wasn't really that good, or you just kinda wore it out?
As a kid I loved Saffron and Electra for girls, and Robin for a boy. In fact, I liked just about any new name I heard.
I also liked random words as names (Candle, Nature, Arrow, Almond, Oval, Square, Huckleberry, etc.)
My more recent interests were Gabriella, Ophelia, Catherine, June and Amelia, all which are just so so to me now.
so have you ever been interested in some names for a short time, but not much anymore?Just a lover of names, no kids for me!

What materials did you use? Mid-arm machine Pfaff Hobby 1200 GrandQuilter, 10 ft frame, white thread for blocks and black thread for sashing.
What advice would you give someone starting this project? I started quilting on my mothers really nice Janome machine with a decent throat, but the weight of my huge quilt exhausted me. So I picked up a sweet mid arm machine and kept on going. I love it. But it takes up my whole dining room. Oh, well... The price to pay for being a new quilter... Go for it and try quilting your own sampler. It is a great end to the experience..
Beautiful achievement
i love this quilt ! i want to make one for my daughter that was married last year . she wanted black and white may be a little gray ! she will love it
Wow what fabric range did you use this is lovely.
This is beautiful and the fact that is finished so well is wonderful too. Nice fabric choice too, gives the sampler a modern look. You have inspired me to give it a try, after I finish the quilt I am working on now.
Love the black and white! Very well done!

Obama's Neverending Campaign To Continue In Order To Take On NRA
If there is one thing nice we can say about (NMP) Obama, it's that he runs an excellent campaign apparatus. Governance? Respect for Americans who disagree with him? Foreign relations? Adherence to the Constitution? Not so much. Campaigning and ginning up crazies to get out there? Yes. And lying liar Stephanie Cutter tells us about it in video at Real Clear Politics
STEPHANIE CUTTER: President Obama provides the leadership here, and he said the American people have to speak up and make their voices heard in this debate. Just like the NRA is doing with there membership. And President Obama's network across this country, grassroots individuals, who organize, volunteered with their time to get the president reelected are much more powerful than the NRA lobby.
And I think that you can expect to see that network activated, very soon. And for good reason. We need to pass commonsense legislation to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and those who shouldn't be carrying guns. That's the commonsense nature of this.
So instead of a national discussion, we'll see a typical Obama campaign of fear and demonization, of abusing and smearing the NRA and Americans who support that pesky 2nd Amendment, not to mention the 4th, 5th, and 9th.
In fact, Obama looks to continue the neverending campaign for everything
In an unprecedented move, President Barack Obama's vaunted political organization is being turned into a nonprofit group — funded in part by corporate money — to mobilize support behind the president's second-term agenda.
Democratic officials familiar with the plan said Thursday the tax-exempt organization will be called Organizing for Action and seek to harness the energy of the president's re-election campaign for future legislative fights. Officials said the group will be separate from the Democratic National Committee and advocate on key policy issues such as gun control and immigration, train future leaders and devote attention to local issues around the nation.
Perhaps Ted Cruz is correct that Obama is "drunk on power." It'd be nice if he got his facts straight, such as his mule fritters assertion about 40% not obtaining a background check to purchase a handgun, but facts matter little when Obama is reaching for an issue and Americans to abuse.

Samantha, west malling
These boots were exactly what I wanted, dressy, sensible heel, patent, not black. However, the shoe part fitted fine but the top part really hurt my shin as I walked. No flexibility in the ankle part meant it would have given me bruises and made me reluctant to wear them. With a heavy heart I had to return them- sob Feedback from Clarks: Thank you for leaving a review and we're sorry to hear you didn't find these shoes comfy.

Genuinely original interpretation of the Brit gangster and Lewis Carroll's surreal tale.
Jan 24, 2011An interesting take on the classic Alice in Wonderland... but was it enjoyable?? not really... I found myself bored halfway through the movie and so many times I thought about turning it off, there were times that I felt I enjoyed the movie and times I felt I hated it, the acting was quite poor.. but with a cast of Maggie Grace as your main character and Danny Dyer as the support, what more can you expect. I wouldn't really recommend it, if you see this in your local rental store... give it a pass.… Expand

too shaky when cat is on the very top. my cat is only 8 lbs, &barely fits on the platforms but she still plays on it.
my cats love it
yulia from Kingsport, TN– Verified Buyer
my two cats like to play with each other jumping up and down on this tree.. or chase that mouse. very good for them for stretching and scratching. and very nice price.5 stars.
Cat favorite
karin from Portland, OR– Verified Buyer
The tree is sturdy and provides perching, climbing, scratching and hiding features, great fun for the feline and a lifesaver for the couch.
Fine cat tree.
A. from VA– Verified Buyer
The cat tree is fine! I read some reviews about it being wobbly, so I repositioned it so it was more stable. I mean if I put my hand on top it's wobbly, but my cat usually doesn't go up there. It was pretty hard to put together.
cat tower
mel b from california
Easy to put together. Get quality cost is amazing. My cat is loving it. It fits just fine in my one bedroom apt.

I have 4 cats and they love their tree!! It's the 2nd one I bought so far!!! Easy to put together and can fit almost anywhere.
Great Tree
Vicki from Underwood, IA– Verified Buyer
My Stinker loves it and it was pretty easy to put together. It works great in a corner area and she loves to try and catch the little birdie underneath.
Wobbly, unstable junk
Nancy from United States– Top 1000 Reviewer
Bought this cat tree with Sherpa covering and couldn't be more disappointed. Threads on screws were stripped thus whole thing wiggles and cats won't get near it, and I'm not handy enough stabilize it with lumber. And although defective I wasn't allowed to return it, as it was â€special sale' aka rip-off of $50! Used to like Wayfair, haven't shopped there since. :(
just perfect
patricidunlapa from Pensacola, FL– Verified Buyer
I wanted a cat tree to set in a corner behind a reclining loveseat., My cats love it. They climb it and love to look down on me watching TV or crocheting. This has helped since they use to sit on top of the recliner and growl at me whenever I moved my head. Love it.
Easy to assemble
Carolyn from Framingham, MA– Verified Buyer
I purchased this before getting the cats so that they would have a nice place to hang out when I get them. I assume they will like it since the top two levels will be in a corner with windows. They will be able to bask in the sun and watch the wildlife outside. The only reason I'm not giving this five stars is because the top level is not screwed into the middle of the square. It is at one end, which looks to me like it may become wobbly over time. I'll just have to wait and see.

MOOCs in the developing world – Pros and cons
Posted by I can do this in Uncategorized on November 20, 2014
Several of the challenges cited by sceptics in raising the international profile of MOOCs – how to prevent cheating and improve completion rates, for example – are identical to those faced by Western educators.
Source: www.universityworldnews.com
An interesting read to consider MOOCs, modular open online courseware.
With so many cultural considerations in different countries, and the difficulty many of us have to get online, MOOCs are something to think about. Unfortunately, professional development with a MOOC is not taken into consideration by my university tenuring system…something to think about……..
Annual Plans
Posted by I can do this in lesson plan help on November 20, 2014
What should an annual plan demonstrate?
An annual plan should share what the students learn through the evidence of learning outcomes, functions and competencies (as noted by the functions and competencies, and what the teacher will do. The accompanying plan covers two months.
Since very few candidates completed an annual plan that shows your competency in planning, please practice with this BIMONTHLY PLAN. It is a SEP-approved format and is currently in use in one of the largest secondary schools in the city.
Download and print the two-page plan and do the following:
1. Combining the competencies and learning evidences, write your ideas for three alternative assessments during this time period which could be used for evaluation, right on the pages themselves.
2. Add three more functions related to the ALTE can-do statements that relate to this level of language learner and to the material that is being covered.
We will compare your ideas in class first thing.
Would you like to be in your classroom?
Posted by I can do this in blogging, Collaboration and management, communication, TKT on November 15, 2014
As we begin the home stretch in our last module on classroom management, think about what your classroom looks like, or think of how you felt as a student in your last EFL class. What do you most remember and why? Are your most memorable moments positive, or negative? As teachers and soon-to-be teachers, you might ask yourself, "Would you want to be in your class?"
In her blog, Edna analizes classroom rules and regulations. What has been your personal experience? Share her analysis at this post. Do you agree with her?
Now that we are in Module 3, we will delve into classroom management. Have you ever heard a song sung by Billie Holiday called, "It's not what you say, it's how you say it?" What teachers say and do will affect student learning outcomes more than any other factor in our passive students who are accustomed to traditional classrooms.
1. Read this article as a synopsis of the book Tools for Teaching by Dr. Fred Jones, often coined the King of Classroom Management, on how educators can use body language, calmness and silence to reduce back talking and other attitude interruptions. Remember that discipline management has to happen before academics can be learned.
While you read, think about the word discipline. What is its true definition? Who has or exercises discipline? Why would there be breaches of discipline?
2. Assignment: On your blog you will address these questions as you talk about a time you saw a student back talking in the classroom. What did the teacher do? What did the other students do? What could have happened? Write about your experience and how it could have been avoided on your blog. Read three other people's stories and comment on their experiences.

Onions and Learning Situations
Posted by I can do this in blogging, Collaboration and management, communication, teaching techniques, technology on November 12, 2014
In the past I have made the analogy between onions and learning situations. Not just any onions: the big, round sweet Spanish onions that saute up so sweet. When you eat them before they are ripe, they are strong and have a sharp, unpleasant taste, but left to grow layer upon layer of sweet goodness, they grow into a delicious tasty treat.
After having class on the Moodle platform, I wanted to share the onion analogy with you. Having the opportunity to work in a variety of contexts provides different levels of engagement with students just like the layers in an onion.
– Those that run away from technology have the opportunity of working with the pages in the Anthology dedicated to the Learning Theorists.
– Those that missed class could use the Moodle platform to access the class and not miss important information, although they miss important face to face discussion. Discussion could be facilitated through other contexts, such as through the blogs, and discussion forums in a classroom that are set up for a mufti-layered delivery.
– Those that like to work online worked at their own pace.
– Those that like to work in groups and do not like technology are able to work supported in small groups to access the information and draw conclusions by filling in their matrix.
– Those that want to look at the information again can do so anytime, as long as they are enrolled in the Moodle course online.
This experience provides a differentiation that is seldom available in our regular four walled classrooms. The contexts in which we work during our online and blended session are multiple and provide a variety of opportunities for all types of learners. We figuratively knock down the classroom walls and open up the classroom to expand our possibilities of learning.
I'd like to share this article from an online e-zine in which educators share their views on flattening the classroom walls, or as they say in this article, flipping the classroom:
Favorite Strategies for engaging students in class discussions
Then to wrap up the topic of motivation, I'd like to share a post from one of the teachers on my international PLN (personal and professional learning network) who posted a reflective entry after her visit to IATEFL last year.
Please check out Eva's blog..
Eva, thank you. I couldn't have summed it up better.

Module 2: Lesson Planning
Posted by I can do this in lesson plan help, TKT, Uncategorized on October 26, 2014
Supposedly it all comes together in one place: the classroom.
We take our planned lesson, enrich it with materials, use aids in the classroom and research using resources to bring more resources for our students. Everything we do has a purpose. Lesson planning does not have to be difficult. Check out Writing lesson plans does not have to be difficult document for help.
Many people often leave out the assessment or evaluation from the lesson plan, thinking that it refers to formal evaluation. Summative, or formative, you need to make sure that your students have achieved the lesson aims and specific objectives. Plan to gather some evidence in the form of student work. You may include a rubric based on the lesson aims. Students might repeat some activities from the lesson without the teacher's guidance as assessment. Evidence doesn't always need to be a quiz.
Writing lesson plans is an integral part of teaching. Too many beginning teachers and veterans consider lesson plans a tedious and unnecessary chore which they must do for their supervisors. Once they are working, they resort to lesson plans only when they will be observed or if asked to produce them for revision.
Frustration with lesson plans results from three sources:
1. They do not understand the need: the purpose and rationale, although explained to them, is not felt or shared.
2. Trainees find it difficult to write measurable objectives.
3. Trainees find formats vague or of little help. They struggle to make the plan fit the format instead of the other way around.
To address these frustrations, this post will address these sources.
What will well-planned lessons do for you?
1. Focus you.
2. Provide you with a plan and a back-up plan.
3. Force you to consider the purpose of the lesson and reason for each step.
4. Establish clear goals for the lesson that are understood by you and the learner.
5. Allow you to predict potential problems.
6. Help you design a coherent and cohesive lesson within a framework of a unit or annual plan.
7. Help you make a smooth transition from one activity to the next.
8. Provide you with a written record of the course.
9. Encourage you to examine the lessons critically and make improvements.
10. Added by Luis Felipe from Maravatio: Having the lesson plan in place helps you to stop worrying about what comes next and helps you focus on observing and monitoring to know better how your students are progressing.

HOTS and LOTS and learning to learn
Posted by I can do this in lesson plan help, teaching techniques on October 26, 2014
Here in Mexico, traditional teaching methods are still commonly found in most classrooms from kindergarten to university level. Student-centered classes are few and far between, and teachers who guide on the side are often called out by their principals to make less noise.
With teacher-centered classrooms still prevalent, students are given few opportunities to develop critical thinking skills. Many teacher trainees in Mexico know that they would like to help change the status quo, but have not had the experience to know how to make changes.
By relying on the HOTS of Bloom's Taxonomy, teachers help students go beyond simple repetition to using target language and vocabulary in complex tasks which promote the use of critical thinking. The addition of reflection activities also provides many meta-cognitive experiences for learners. Find out more about Bloom's Taxonomy in these Scoop it pages:
His life
A description of the taxonomy
learning outcomes and assessments
Teacher trainees in the Universidad Michoacana were given the task to design learning outcomes for the different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. A great example of their work can be found on Yesy's Blog, http://yesyhd.wordpress.com/ and and on Malena's blog . Please have a look to see what we are doing.
Another blogging educator from Melbourne, Australia just published an interesting post on her blog. I invite you to read Edna's post at http://whatedsaid.wordpress.com/2012/05/23/learning-isnt-linear/. Please read and share what you feel about the development of critical thinking skills today in Mexico. We welcome your comments.
Flipping Bloom's Taxonomy
Posted by I can do this in blogging, Collaboration and management, communication, lesson plan help, teaching techniques on October 26, 2014
As one of my mentors, Shelley Wright has a lot to say and has done even more. Besides writing several books and organizing and promoting Connected Educators Month (August, 2013) and maintaining a Powerful Learning Practices site, she constantly is formulating ideas that make me think.
Since our foray into Bloom's Taxonomy and your responses on your own blogs, I have felt that we had left Bloom with a lot more to investigate. During 2012, Shelley wrote a blog post that I would like to share with you here, so you can savor the flavor of new ways of thinking, of teaching and of learning.
Please note that Shelley's post fomented 98 comments. Have a good read with less teacher, more student, Flipping Bloom's Taxonomy.
Is lesson planning a part of Mexican culture? A question asked by disgruntled teachers doing lesson-planning every Sunday evening
Posted by I can do this in communication, lesson plan help, TKT on October 26, 2014
Hofstede's Five Intercultural Dimensions
Do you consider the activity of planning lessons to be especially difficult? Put your idea
about lesson planning on this poll.
The idea of planning ahead might not be native to Mexican culture on the whole. Most people nowadays do not create the equivalent of IRAs for retirement; nor do most go on vacation creating an itinerary, nor do newlyweds start to put away savings for their future children's college education. How many people actually make travel arrangements or hotel reservations months ahead of time? Have you ever considered that planning for the future might not be a large part of Mexican culture? Therefore, as teachers, planning lessons may be a difficult skill to acquire, but a necessary task to perform. Have you ever considered that lesson planning may be a cultural teaching skill imported from different educational cultures?
With the world becoming increasingly global and connected, it is important to develop cultural awareness and how that may enable or disable learning. Cultural awareness may be described as a person's capability to function effectively in situations characterized by cultural diversity. This critical capability enhances effectiveness in learning as well as interpersonal interactions in a wide range of social contexts.
As an educator from one country (USA) living in another country (Mexico), I find myself in crosshairs of cultural diversity every day. Even my interest in facilitating online learning has sparked cultural diversity issues in my teaching situation where most people through fear of mistaking and avoidance of the unknown refuse to learn about incorporating technology into their classrooms or do so with reluctance. Most people working with cross-cultural communication and intercultural training and coaching have heard about Hofstede's Five Intercultural Dimensions.
Culture may be likened to the "collective programming of the mind," making distinctions from one group of people (nations, regions, religions, jobs, governments, ethnicities as examples) to another.
What Are Hofstede's Five Intercultural Dimensions?
Professor Hofstede's five intercultural dimensions are
- Power Distance : Measures inequality
- Individualism: is the degree to which individuals are integrated into groups
- Uncertainty Avoidance: indicates to what extent people feel either uncomfortable orcomfortable in unstructured situations.
- Masculinity: Masculinity versus femininity, refers to the distribution of emotional roles between the genders
- Long-Term Orientation: Long term oriented societies foster pragmatic virtues oriented towards future rewards, in particular saving, persistence, and adapting to changing circumstances. Short-term oriented societies foster virtues related to the past and present such as national pride, respect for tradition, preservation of "face", and fulfilling social obligations.
It is important to understand that the tool developed by Hofstede is just a support which may be used to stimulate questions and help people from different cultures to share information and discuss about meta-communication (communication about the communication process). It is not a way to judge since there are no good or bad intercultural dimensions. The tool may increase awareness about our own culture and others and help identify specific skills needed for candidates for expatriation or identify skills to develop to participate in means of communication inherent in other cultures.
So, does that help explain why lesson planning is so difficult to start doing when it is 7pm on a Sunday evening?

Charles to create 'eco-castle'
Prince Charles's architectural ambition has taken another step forward with news he is set to develop an eco-castle.Charles's charity, the Prince's Regeneration Trust, has bought the Grade A-listed Kinloch Castle on the island of Rum in Scotland. The organisation is drawing up proposals to renovate the rundown building and add a series of eco-additions to its fabric. Completed in 1901, Kinloch Castle was originally the home of industrialist Sir George Bullough. In 1958 his wife sold the property, which would today cost £15 million to build, to what is now Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH). The Prince and the Duchess of Cornwall visited the site in June, and it is understood that Charles has helped draw up plans for a 'green castle'. A spokesman for Clarence House confirmed Charles' involvement in the project. He said: 'Prince Charles is working with SNH to put in a plan for Kinloch Castle.' He added that the Prince always endeavoured to be environmentally friendly and any future restoration project would have 'green elements' to it. These would include solar panels and an independent power supply. Work is in progress on the second phase of feasibility studies and other options which will be considered. by Ed Dorrell

Priskin Having Town Medical
Thursday, 6th Aug 2009 15:41
Watford striker Tamas Priskin is undergoing a medical at Portman Road, the Blues and Hornets having agreed a £1.7 million fee for the Hungarian international. TWTD was first to break the news of Town's interest in the 22-year-old last Thursday.
Earlier this week, Priskin's agent József Vörösbaranyi confirmed that the Blues had made an offer for the striker, believed to be in the region of £1.2 million, which the Hertfordshire club turned down. However, Vörösbaranyi indicated that he felt a deal would ultimately be done.
Meanwhile, we understand the Blues are also moving closer to signing Sunderland striker Daryl Murphy. Yesterday, TWTD revealed that Town had renewed their efforts to land the Irish international.
Elsewhere, Bohemians manager Pat Fenlon has issued a hands-off warning to the Blues regarding goalkeeper Brian Murphy and midfielder Gary Deegan: "Gary and Brian won't be leaving before the [Irish] season is over [in November]."
As we reported yesterday, the Blues are understood to be interested in Murphy, while Deegan was linked with Town a fortnight ago.

Which is not to say he didn't richly deserve to get the chop. Absolutely unwilling to "lose", Howie, reaching the bottom of his limited bag of tricks, positioned himself as "choosing" to fall on his sword. Knowing that his Quickfire offering was an embarrassment, he trotted out the high-minded principle argument again (as he did in Episode One). He "chose" not to submit a less-than-the best offering -- cause he's just so exacting and his standards so high, you see.
His upturned martini glass was a defiant "Screw You" to the judges, but to me it smacked of Roberto Duran's famous "No mas" end to his bout with Sugar Ray Leonard. The tough, proud, and previously unbeatable Duran, after a few short rounds with the much faster, more polished Leonard, looked into the future and saw nothing but many more rounds of swinging at empty air and a humiliating loss on points. So he quit. Better, he figured, to walk out upright than allow anyone the satisfaction of watching him be a punching bag in the last round.
It's the old "You can't fire me! I QUIT!" exit strategy, and Howie was workin' it from early in the show. "Who gives a **** what the judges say? " he was saying -- even before he lost. In the bit from his exit interview, Howie was already at work on his revisionist version of events -- that he'd "made the right choice."
