Knowledge Hunting

Knowledge Hunting
Dr. Donald L. Green, 9 July 2023

I can’t stop the hunt for understanding. The more I know, the less I know, which I detest! I am on a quest, perhaps to a fault. I love the thrill of unraveling new ideas and learning about the world, teaching how to teach and apply it to learning about riding a motorcycle or teaching someone to ride a motorcycle.

This could be considered as a primary underpinning, a part of learning supporting other tasks otherwise known as scaffolding, within the curriculum to foster development. …
