In terms of motiviation, first lets open our definition of text, the word has dominated the world for 800 years. Word and sound relationships took 800 years to get across the globe. The web reached a billion in 30 years. Is the era of text expanding?

I teach and encourage my students to teach consonant blends like br an pl. They are separate sounds but they do blend and it is perfectly normal (and good) to delineate between blends and digraphs IMO

1/2 people in room at @uconnresearch SBIR event faculty who chase grants everyday. I might have utilized a more production based pedagogy that took advantage of the audience but I always prefer uncoferences or at least some audience participation. Its simply better learning.

Do you think the learning is in the writing or in the reflection? can the reflection be separated from the writing? What about video our audio reflection? Do we just need to expand what counts as a text?
