      ...and I thought this quite relevant in the context of the discussions David and I have had about languages in the recent past.  The interesting question is about what will make way in the curriculum for the introduction of the statutory language?  It also prompts the strategic question of what we might do, if anything, in response to Dulwich's clear marketing of Mandarin in the primary sector.

    Prof Neil Mercer spoke at the NIE conference in Singapore (Jun 2013) Inspiring talk - with quite a simple message: (paraphrasing) Humans are social beings - brains have evolved to work well with others. However, group work has to be well planned and involve 'exploratory talk' if it is going to make a difference.

    Hmmm, yes, very interesting. I also see increasing evidence that the brain isn't the all controlling factor we have assumed it to be ... where is the mind? The heart certainly plays a far more important role in our operations than we thought.
