The Return of the Blog

“You enter the forest
at the darkest point,
where there is no path.
Where there is a way or path,
it is someone else’s path.
You are not on your own path.
If you follow someone else’s way,
you are not going to realize
your potential.”
― Joseph Campbell, The Hero’s Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life & Work
Of course, Joseph Campbell never had Middle School Cafeteria duty. Still his advice for heroes is well taken. So the blog left on a journey in search of enlightenment.
The blog has been to see all the great thinkers:
Dali Lama
Retired chemistry teacher
Soon to be retired shop teachers
Each one in turn dropped a small bon mot of wisdom on the Blog. Finally, penniless but refreshed, like a teacher in the last week of August, the Blog stowed away on a tramp steamer and returned to ASSET. ( OK, technically it was a container ship carrying Snuggies for the upcoming winter. Apparently there are no more tramp steamers. Where’s the romance ? )
In any event, the Blog resumes. Here you will find stories of and links to the intersection of science and history. Hopefully you will find some ideas to use in your classes.
Check out the archives also.
If you find something useful, please tell about it in the comments so others can use it. Also leave critiques, suggestions, and requests. The blog will try and help wherever possible.
or if you need a snuggie ….
