Why do I have to click ‘Reply’. A critique of discussion forum methodology in restricted environments. Developing an Efficient System for Course Management

It’s amusing, but I never thought that I’d feel the overwhelming urge to keep up with a blog. Here it is. Late at night and I couldn’t fall asleep without partaking in this reflective goodness.

In education, the notion of being driven is so unique that it isn’t viewed as normal within a standard educational environment. In a meeting with Harvard hopefuls, an attendee asked the right question. He asked what the typical student in their graduate programs all possessed. At some fundamental level they all had to have one unifying quality which made them unique. It was leadership. Leadership is the one quality that great men and women have. If you want to be a success and complete tasks, make strides, and contribute extraordinary things, then you must be willing to be constantly driven and always seek answers. If you have all your answers, then you’re not asking enough questions. If you’re asking a lot of questions, but fail to get sufficient answers, then either you’re speaking the wrong language or have failed to ask the right questions.

Ask the right questions and doors open, people reciprocate, and opportunities to continually prove brillance still exists in human form. Most people are bored and dulled. Brilliance makes all of that lack-lustre living a little bit more colorful, rich, radiant, and vibrant (sounds like a shampoo commercial, sorry).

Signing off,
