By Serena Clayton We embarked on this endeavor with the conviction that teachers and their practices in the classroom are at the [...]

It has been 3 months since my last visit, the time in between has passed quickly; first recovery, getting my bearings back home where so much of what we think is a necessity is really a convenience, then back to work writing grants, updating files and [...]
