Friday, June 22, 2007 Well, we are finally here! Just kidding. It's 9:34 and we've been at the airport for 6 hours now. I'm really getting excited, and I wish they would board us already. I can't handle another game of "Crazy 8s." Hopefully we can all sleep on the way so that we are energized for the day tomorrow! I think they are FINALLY boarding. The next entry should be from London! Hi Mom and Dad!Ali Stoyko / 0 comments |
About the Adventure “You find no man, at all intellectual, who is willing to leave London. No, Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford.” - Samuel Johnson (1777) From June 22nd to July 2nd, eight students and their professor will explore firsthand sites of primary interest to English teachers throughout greater London, Oxford, and Stratford-on-Avon. While doing so, they'll write about the value of curriculum as lived experience in the context of English language and literature, critique the educational value of contemporary British artistic and cultural events, and go on to develop a plan for teaching and learning the English language arts that addresses experiential learning and authentic reading, writing, listening, and speaking activities. Moravian sends student teachers to inner city London neighborhoods each semester, and this course will allow registrants to explore in detail ways to use the city's resources to construct curriculum.
