I like this candid shot even though you can't really see chef.
Chef Paolo Lopriore of Il Canto spent a week at Stratford Chef's School (this was his second visit). This was a shot taken in the kitchen while chef was wrapping up a conversation with the student chef for next evening's dinner (a different student chef heads the kitchen every night). A sight like this always touches me (mentorship) - the fact that there's a personal vested interest/relationship between teacher and student. Besides being jovial and very approachable, I can understand why chef is popular with the students and staff: he's just really nice and obviously cares.

When you are using speed learning or accelerated learning techniques you do so by communicating. Communication is formed from language.

Well maybe. You see it all depends on what the language is that you are learning in...

These aren't too bad for my first attempts at taking those out of a moving car photos I love to take with digital cameras. These "cliffs" on the sides of the entrance ramp to exit 8 going north on I 93 in Manchester New Hampshire are always intriguing to me this time of year -

Designed for elementary school students, Learning Pet enriches lessons by creating a physical interface to interact with the virtual world. We demonstrate a number sorting game, where the student interacts with the robot to blast virtual UFO's with the lowest value. Correct answers are celebrated with a wing flap, and each level-up with a dance. We use the Accessory Development Kit to interface with mobile devices while away from the computer.
