I had known about the Mi'Kmaw game of waltes for many years but I had never seen it played. Today at the Port Royal Habitation we were offered the opportunity to learn how to play this ancient game. Waltes is played with a wooden bowl and six two sided dice. The player bangs the bowl to make the dice jump and tries to get five matching dice to open the game. Play continues with various combinations of dice needed to score. In a very nice touch, a hand is swept over the bowl after each failed turn to remove your bad luck. The sticks are used to keep score.

A few months back I was trained to become a high school mentor for the YMCA. I don't really want to go into the details of mentoring (it's something that every twenty-something should try it) and truthfully, I don't have much to offer to this 15 year old girl other than my attentive ear and a few practical jokes. Her personal family issues and quirks aside, she's really just your average teenager with the average teenager problems. She's not one to regale the winter ball or talk about boys. She nervously anticipates getting slammed with a wave of homework assignments. She can't stand it when her older brothers pick on her. Her only companion is her beloved cat, who glares and snarls at every guest.
In the past two months, I've learned a lot from my mentee about friends, family, and problems. It's funny to hear her stories from school and see that there are some elements from high school that really never change in adulthood. When I hear her complain about the mean girls in school, I think about the mean girls in my life who have been bossy, overbearing, and critical. And when you're doling advice to a 15 year old, telling them that "you don't have to be their friend", it makes you rethink your own friendships as well.
This is the general outline I am using to train my teachers about breaking down large projects into parts using web 2.0 tech. Popplet is collaborative up to 10 users. We love it. It can do so much more than what is seen here.

Me at Pittsburgh's Cathedral of Learning...the original from which I made my Librarian Trading Card.
This is part of a photo shoot for a not for profit organization for documenting their innovative methods for teaching and learning in a school for under-privileged girls - the main focus of teaching method is encouraging children to tackle problems through group analysis and discussion instead of handed down learning. The class rooms are redesigned so that groups of girls face each other. The subject teachers are trained to introduce the topics but thereafter take a less active role,; mainly acting as a facilitator to the students in finding their answers through a dialectic process
Natural Henna artist September Reed visits the Avondale Regional Branch Library's teen summer learning program to share information on the history of henna, the process of creating paste, and the resulting stains. Each participant practices drawing their design and applying (lotion) henna—(there is no white henna!) Everyone received a practice tube of white lotion and a tube of brown henna to take home and apply.

NLP Accelerated learning is about having the right motivation, the right state and beliefs and the correct tools to learn things really quickly and easily.
When you add your own personal learning style and a few NLP techniques then learning stuff really does get easy. It really is all about learning excellence.
Here’s why I believe that learning how to learn is even more important now than ever.
There is no such thing as a job for life anymore. It is thought that the average school leaver will have between 3 and 5 careers over the course of their working life. It makes sense to be able to retrain as quickly and as easily as possible.
There will be jobs & businesses in the future, that do not currently exist. Those who adapt quickest will be the winners.
If we are now in the Information age that suggests having a lot of new data to keep up with. The ‘innovation curve is about to go vertical.
If you were to create a graph of all the information that has ever existed and started the graph at the year
1 AD it would take until 1500 for the amount of knowledge available to double. It doubled again by 1750 and then 1900. The next doubling of knowledge took a mere 50 years then 10 years and 7 years and finally six years.
This was up until 1973 when there was 128 times more knowledge than in 1 AD according to George Anderia who measured this growth.

I was just a split-second too quick on the shutter for this one. I wanted to get a little more distance on the flier.......
