Daniel Pink
I listened to Steve Hargadon from the Future of Education interview Daniel Pink about his book entitled Drive. Here are two questions that he spoke about that I want to remember. I’m thinking that I might want to print them out and post them on my classroom wall to share with students. Simple, yet powerful.

MIT ‘Second Friday’ Program
I was reading that MIT is hosting special events on ‘Second Fridays.’ One of the events that will be fun to attend is Nautical Adventures on March 12, 2010. Skipper Rich Wilson will give a presentation about his Vendee Globe voyage that he completed on March 10, 2009. More information about the event is posted on the MIT Museum link here:
