    shall we say "teaching is craftsmanship"?

    "But if you take art to mean something that’s wholly beyond analysis, I’d say it’s not an art either. . . a good teacher knows some fundamental findings from science, but then also uses creativity and ingenuity to go beyond any strictures that science can offer to create something wholly original, functional and enduring."

    First, art is not totally beyond analysis -- art criticisms (analysis) are published all the time. Second, appreciation, not "effectiveness" is central in teaching.

    I was your 200th viewer! Looking forward to your book and you should use your (soothing) voice for books on tape!

    I appreciate the relevancy and succinct explanations you provide. Since reading "Why Students...", I have drastically changed my approach to teaching
