Hi all,
?
I?ve talked with Dr. Bell about this for years. Count me in as I?ve got all kinds of random bits and pieces I?ve written that could be useful. Something else to consider would be a group who is willing to interview and write articles based on what has been learned by seasoned instructors who perhaps don?t teach currently or aren?t much for writing. For example, my entire Tech cohort is either now in management or other areas of rehabilitation, but we had 35+ years of teaching experience between the three of us. ?
?
Perhaps that?s its own story in itself.

I was just talking with someone about the need for updated literature from the standpoint of SD. I would love to be a part of this working group.

Justin,

Thanks for sharing. This reads pretty good.
Last summer, he contacted me about writing a Structured Discovery textbook. I suggested that folks like Merry Noel, Jeff, myself and others like you have been at this writing business for a while, some some collaborative effort would be best so as not to work across purposes, but we never got back around to it.
Perhaps it is time for a small group to consider taking on this task.

Hi everyone,

There is an article in the 2021 issue of the Braille Monitor, and I?d like to call your attention to it.

I teach in Pennsylvania, and I actually did not realize that this guy lived in Pennsylvania.
?
I wonder if we ought to step up to do more writing like this to help spread the word throughout the Federation about what we?re experiencing as teachers of the blind right now and to dispel myths about remote instruction.
?
I?m not really in a position right now to grasp the fullness of it, but I think it?s worth reading.
?
Aloha,
