Last weeks insights

I read some more of the "A whole new mind" by Daniel Pink this week and realized that I see myself as a lot of what he describes as "whole minded". I also realized that I see a lot of the "whole mind" mindset in my world. My brother-in-law got his most recent job, he feels, in a large part because he spends time and is interested in music. This seemed to strike a cord with one of the interviewers. After reading about 'symphony' in the book, I began to see how this interest in music may actually have helped his career. (And if he reads this blog, thanks for letting me use you!)

This "whole mind" thought plays into what we are discussing in class - using blogs, wikis and podcasts to more fully engage a student in the business of learning. Using their "whole mind". I think the book is a great companion piece to the text we are currently reading.
