Saw This Today

Just now, I was reading the October issue of Reader's Digest and in the Quotes section, they were all about education and one really stuck out because it really fits with everything that we're striving to understand in this class.



"Education is a progressive discovery of our own ignorance"



Thought I should share that as food for thought.

Just wanted to share my excitement...

So we got our tutoring assignments today. Somehow I had enough good karma stored up & wound up with a theatre class again. I can't wait to meet my kids! :D

A Brief Introduction

My name is Kaitlin (please call me Kait or Katie). I'm a "senior" this year majoring in Technology Education. This is only my second year here. I spent two years at URI & transferred here to RIC last year & finally decided on my major last semester, so I'm a little behind, but it's nothing I won't be able to handle.

In my free time, I love to listen to music & write poetry. I played flute from 7th grade until the end of high school, & I sang in high school as well. I *love* to sing.

My semester is going well so far. I'm taking four other classes in addition to FNED, as well as my two part-time jobs. I'm a little anxious to see how I manage to juggle everything, but I think I'll be able to manage. :)

I'm most excited for the tutoring portion of this class. I did it last year & got matched with an awesome theatre class. I'm hoping to get matched with another (or the same) theatre class (hence the name of my journal). If I don't get a theatre class, I won't be devastated, but it is definitely something I am hoping for.

If anyone in the class wants to look me up on Facebook (in order to keep in touch about assignments or whatnot), just type in Kait Fontaine & you should see my face pop right up there.
