    ERIC J. DAZA Digital WISDOM: Esametry An n-of-1, single-case, or single-subject study is an idiographic, within-individual study of one person's recurrent characteristics and patterns under various exposure or treatment conditions. These exposure periods make up repeating intervals that can be accurately described as a set of partitioned time series of variables (e.g., outcomes and predictors). The core idea is that there are stable periodic or cyclic patterns that are predictable.

  •  
    "hineng Qigong is a life practice that inexorably leads to improved health, an experience of inner peace, balance, joy and the flowering of inherent wisdom. Hunyuan Qi Therapy as part of the Zhineng Qigong system does not treat only the symptoms of disease, but addresses maladies at their root. Its approach is both holistic and scientifically proven. It is recognized in China as the most effective natural energy-healing modalities on the planet, and while its methods were a well-kept secret for many years, it is now being taught around the world by Master Yuantong Liu with aspirant energy healers in the West. The program is especially designed for students interested in this system dedicated to the principles of evolution, regeneration and holistic health transformation."

On Teaching: Learning From Black Educators - The Atlantic - 0 views

  • “You need a sincere love for children,” Grenell liked to remind Moore. “Never give up on a child.”
  • firm and demanding, but also warm and encouraging.
  • She was named Mississippi Teacher of the Year in 2001 and won the prestigious Milken Award.

  • Students will go to great lengths to hide from me what they don’t know.
  • I do that very intentionally at the beginning of the semester to signal: “I see you as a human being. I’m paying attention to what you say to me. You are a unique individual with skills and ideas that matter.”
  • That’s important, because a lot of students have told me that no one’s ever actually read what they wrote. What they mean by that is that their writing has been graded, but it’s never been read.
  • Then, at the end of the semester, I give them the introduction letter back. And the final exam is an essay where they have to reflect on their portfolio: all of the written pieces they produced in the course of the semester.
  • they’re not used to measuring it in terms of actual skills and knowledge. They're always stunned at how far they’ve come.
  • The students have been so used to having their grammar criticized that they over-censor themselves when they’re writing.
  • The message was always, “When you go to college.” It was always, “You can do it.
  • “You get educated for the benefit of the community and the race.”
  • Today we have wasted a generation, telling young people that the primary reason to pursue education is to get into a well-paying career. In rural or economically depressed areas like Delta, looking at education chiefly as a path to social mobility—rather than a path to full citizenship, one’s sense of agency and freedom—can actually depress achievement and increase hopelessness.

  • By attaching the dreams and aspirations of African American students to a higher good, their expectations are infused with a meaningful purpose.
  • For a lot of the kids now, school is just drudgery from beginning to end—particularly schools that serve poor Black students. There’s no music curriculum, no arts curriculum, no vocational classes.
  • They congratulated me, because I was going to Washington, D.C., to receive the award. These women had taken up money among themselves, put it in a handkerchief, tied it, and handed it to me, as a way to celebrate that I was going to see the president—and represent Black people in a society that questions Black intelligence. I cried. They cried. It was the most touching thing.
  • I am a reflection of the accumulated wisdom these teachers passed on to me. All of these great teachers who had preceded me, who taught in segregated schools under horrible conditions, with no equal pay.
