Suddenly, I Saw Mr. Sex
I flew to the US last week for a conference, and on my way back I managed to work in a 36 hour layover in London on Monday and Tuesday. I touched down at Heathrow around 6:30am and made it to the Walrus Youth Hostel (literally right beside Waterloo Station) by 8:30am.

I am not dead
but I really suck at keeping up with LJ. In my defense, this has been the most hectic point in the semester. I'm glad I made it through without committing homicide.

Student Teaching Observation and Thoughts on Education in Sweden
I just completed my first week of teaching observations where I had the chance to observe my students teaching in 7th, 8th and 9th grade classrooms (the pupils were 13, 14 and 15 respectively). Some things stood out, and I'm not sure yet if I'm seeing a trend that signifies Swedish educational norms, or if this is just a few isolated cases. Some of ( Read more... ) -
