This was a really cool idea, Duncan. It is always interesting when bloggers post a video, as not one has ever matched the voice I assign them in my head. I like that, though.
Your essay criteria made me miss teaching. As much time as it takes grading essays and term papers, it was always one of the most satisfying areas of teaching. I loved offering comments and suggestions to make kids better writers (And I loved it more when I could recognize an honest attempt to implement those suggestions in future pieces).
Keep up the great work, my friend. I'm glad we met through this challenge. I truly enjoy coming here.
Thank you for your thoughts, comments and opinions. I'll be responding soon! I will not be publishing anonymous comments so make sure you leave your name with your comment!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the picture Cartim!
ReplyDeletePaul, you took the words right out my mouth. I really enjoy your blog too and I always look out for it in my blog roll each day.
I feel the same satisfaction you mentioned about marking essays and giving advice too.
This is only the second video I've posted here but I think it went ok. Just need to speak a bit louder next time when the camera is facing me!
This was very interesting Duncan. I hope you have a wonderful day. Blessings...Mary
ReplyDeleteThank you Mary, I'm glad you liked it. Perhaps I should do more video posts in the future!
ReplyDeleteFascinating and a brilliant idea. Now I really feel as if I've met you.

ReplyDeleteLynda, we live in an oven here!
ReplyDeleteRosalind, I'm glad I can be a lot more realistic for my followers :)
