I know it has been a while, and I have not posted anything, but I simultaneously began my doctoral work and started a new job. A truly overwhelming combination. Now that the holiday is over and we are in the new year I am going to making a Resolution to be more consistent about sharing what I am doing online, because I am doing so many exciting things and I really would like to develop an online community around the use of metacognaive teaching strategies and promoting metacognative understanding.  I truly believe that a metacognition can be used elevate the understanding and productivity of students with neurological disabilities. I have seen it in my students and I have seen it in myself.  My post doctoral work at Lesley University is dedicated to this subject and I hope to spark a broader conversation about the point and intent of education in America.

So along with my usual posts about workshops, metacognative tutoring and therapeutic skateboarding expect more posts about research on learning, problem solving and metacognition. Thank you all for you continued support!
