Hand-Over-Hand Guidance: What Lesson Do We Teach?
By Andrea Story, Anchorage, Alaska
(originally published in The National Newspatch, November 1997 reprinted with permission) Independence is emphasized in much of the literature concerning young children who are blind. In the revised edition of Can't Your Child See? A Guide for Parents of Visually Impaired Children it states that, "The more they (parents) teach the child to function independently in the first three or four years, the less they will have to do later (Scott, Jan, Freeman, 1985)." But how do you "teach" independence to a one-, two-, or three-year-old child without sight? How do you bring the world to the child and how do you teach skills such as putting on a jacket without making the child dependent on constant prompts and cues? It has often been observed that many children with visual impairments, especially those with additional impairments, are much more passive than their sighted peers. They seem to think of themselves not as a doer but as one who must wait for assistance or a prompt. Literature on young children with blindness often mentions the "fairy godmother" syndrome. The child has little information to make the connections of how and why things are appearing and disappearing within their world. There is also the concern of imitation: how do you show a child how to eat with a spoon if they can't see how others are doing it? The solution offered for these concerns has often been a hand-over-hand guide technique. The adult holds the back of the child's hand and the child is guided to the objects to be explored and guided through the motions of the activity to be learned.

    General Information
    The Courage To Teach (CTT) program, based on the work of Parker Palmer, is a series of quarterly retreats for the personal and professional renewal of teachers, administrators, and counselors in public schools and higher education. Courage To Teach retreats focus neither on “technique” nor on curricular reform but on renewing the inner lives of professionals in education. Each retreat follows a seasonal theme, using the rich metaphors of the seasons as a way of exploring vocational and life questions. In large-group, small-group and solitary settings, concepts of teacher formation and “the heart of a teacher” are explored, making use of personal stories, reflections on classroom practice, and insights from poets, storytellers, and various wisdom traditions. In August of 2003, Bellarmine’s second group of faculty, administrators and community friends will have completed the two year CTT commitment to formation work. With the facilitation and guidance of Dr. Sally Hare and our current (native) facilitator, Marian Smith, twenty-eight members of the Bellarmine learning community will have completed CTT. Across the country, no other institution of higher education can boast of this richness.

For example, there are studies that found that the experience of depression actually changes at least one aspect of brain structurethe hippocampus is negatively impacted by depression and the release of chemicals like cortisol. Depression may be on a continuum from highly genetically "scripted" to much more reactive to what happens in life, and every possible combo in between! And once depressed, it can affect the brain and how the brain reacts to stressors. It is a complex system with feedback loops. The advantage of seeing a pdoc for medication is that a pdoc, one specializing in psychopharmacology, does psych meds prescriptions all day, all the time, and has seen a lot of patients, and is familiar with many psych meds, the advantages and disadvantages of each, etc. etc. If you are taking a med combo of more than one med, you might want to do at least one consultation with a pdoc (one you find with careful referral). However, if you feel your regular doc has a good handle on the med situation and your response, as well as side effects, etc., you might decide to stick with that doc.

    How we teach and how students learn A mismatch? by Lillian C. McDermott University of Washington During the past fifteen years, a steadily increasing number of physicists have been contributing to the growth of a new field for scholarly inquiry: the learning and teaching of physics. We have by now a rich source of documented information in the many published reports of this research. At this point, it seems reasonable to ask whether we have learned anything from this collective experience that would be useful in current efforts to bring about innovative reform in the introductory course. Results from research indicate that at all levels of instruction the difference between what is taught and what is learned is often greater than most instructors realize. This discrepancy suggests the following question: Is there a corresponding mismatch between how we teach and how students learn?

    • staff's regular demonstration and modelling of effective teaching; the sharp focus in lectures and, especially, workshops on specific key aspects of the teaching of literacy; and staff's good use of student teachers' previous experiences to stimulate their thinking about how pupils learn to read and write.
    HEIs should share their expertise to devise effective ways of demonstrating to student teachers that good theory and good practice are inextricably inter-related. In some HEIs, there was need to ensure more overt and consistent attention to helping student teachers develop their understanding of the role of language in learning their subject and effective ways of teaching pupils to read and write within it. Opportunities were sometimes missed to help student teachers see how significant language dimensions in activities and assessment assignments were related to effective teaching in a subject. However, this issue was raised by enough school staff with experience of supporting student teachers to suggest that the HEIs should consider how best to meet the need for more detailed information, possibly using print materials and/or web site facilities. However, in several institutions there were student teachers whose own command of language was limited. These students needed more proactive guidance and support from the HEI on where and how to find help.

    to contribute to the development of pupils' skills in literacy in their first post. Programmes were planned with the reasonable expectation that continuing professional development during and beyond the probationary period would extend this initial competence. Teachers would be expected gradually to gain greater expertise in developing pupils' reading and writing skills, in the context of their own role as primary or secondary teachers. HEIs should consider ways of giving student teachers more time to study the English language components of the PGCE (Primary) programmes. Programmes for secondary teachers of English As with PGCE (Primary) programmes, having only 18 weeks for HEI teaching in PGCE (Secondary) made it difficult to give as full attention as was desirable to all the aims of the programmes. However, in some placements, student teachers' confidence was reduced because they had to face up to a gap in their knowledge and experience without receiving the support needed to tackle the issue. Some secondary English programmes used specific periods of school experience very successfully to consolidate work done in the HEI on literacy. For example, they integrated relevant practical experience in schools with campus work on teaching and assessing reading and writing at S1 and S2.

    The Difference in Austin Lindy's Teaching
    We are not a Ballroom Studio
    Lindy Hop is not a Ballroom dance, and Ballroom studios or teachers that teach Swing dancing frankly do not teach the same way that we teach. The style of movement, posture, athleticism, and the approach toward music and dancing is different. Historically, Swing and Lindy Hop also developed as a "street dance," not a "Ballroom" dance. It emerged as part of the Swing Era revolution against conventional, European attitudes about music and dancing, in general. Swing music was more energetic, animalistic, and lively than any European form of Ballroom music, and Lindy Hop arose out of the party ballrooms of Harlem (not Europe or even Manhattan) to reflect that fact. In its modern form, Lindy Hop is more athletic, more funky, more sensual, and (we submit) more fun than traditional Ballroom dances as a result. And vive la difference ! Lindy Hop has evolved into a truly musical, improvisational dance that emphasizes the connections between partners and the love of music, not showing off to an audience or a panel of judges. To be honest, if it were just another Ballroom Dance, most people who Lindy Hop across the country would probably not have learned, and certainly would not have become as obsessed and enthusiastic about it. There are also plenty of Ballroom dancers who similarly do not enjoy Lindy Hop for the converse reasons. (Too loosey-goosey, you sweat too much, different style of movement and music, etc.). Thus, although we respect Ballroom studios for teaching Ballroom dances and teaching them true to form in the grand Ballroom tradition, a Ballroom Studio honestly is not the right place to learn how to Swing Dance.

Frequently we receive enquiries from people which relate to other families or branches in which we have not specialised. Rather than re-type the same answers each time, we refer people to this page, which contains links which may be useful. We do not vouch for the accuracy of information on other sites. The guidance given on this page is based on our experience as amateur genealogists who have used the internet and have found it both helpful but not always reliable (like Burke's Peerage, Landed Gentry, etc, qv below). A good way to begin your enquiries is to gather information, share it with others, and receive more information in return.

    Chapter 22 Teaching: Well Aimed Guidance
    PRINCIPLE 22 Teaching is guiding people through learning experiences which are carefully aimed to meet specific needs in their lives.
    In your teaching show integrity, seriousness, and soundness of speech (Titus 2:7-8)
    Teaching is Guiding
    Teaching includes many things: demonstrating, sharing, motivating, helping learners discover, listening, correcting, being an example, lecturing, discussing, and much more. An extremely narrow view of teaching might equate it with giving a well planned lecture to a classroom full of students sitting in straight rows. But a healthy view of teaching is rich and broad. Perhaps the best synonym for the word "teaching" is the word "guiding," because guiding can be done in any setting and in almost any way. When we talk of teaching as guiding we are also reminded of two things that are crucial in good teaching. We are reminded that learners are being guided toward something and that the learners themselves must be personally involved and moving toward the goal. These two things, better known as aims and meaningful student involvement, are absolutely essential if the teaching is going to be effective.

    Can patients teach students? It's time to change the role of patients What can patients teach medical students? Nothing - after all, you are learning medicine, acquiring knowledge and skills that only doctors and scientists are competent to teach. Obviously you have to learn about patients, but to be taught by them elevates them to an inappropriate status. If you reject this hypothesis you are presumably prepared to consider that patients can teach you something, but what? Patients are obviously essential to the process of learning to be a doctor, but their role in medical education is usually passive. They have the status of a learning resource, providing you with opportunities to practise newly acquired skills. However, there is a distinction to be made between "learning from" patients and being "taught by" patients. The shift from passive to active involvement in your education brings potential benefits. How was it for you?

    THE STATE OF GENERAL EDUCATION TODAY
    GENERAL EDUCATION AS HABITS OF THOUGHT
    Teaching habits of thought can include values development and clarification. Values are "inevitably espoused" in general education classes, according to Thomas (1993, p. 41). Thomas describes four methods to teach values. First, an instructor may openly assess the worth of an idea or event. Second, the instructor may express a line of thinking leading to an opinion. Third, the instructor may provide more than one alternative to a problem and explain the underlying values for each alternative. And fourth, students can be encouraged to explore their own values and express judgments. Thomas argues that general education courses that deliberately teach values are more useful than those which teach facts and concepts.
    GENERAL EDUCATION TO MEET LEARNERS' FUTURE NEEDS
    In preparing students for the future, general education should include courses which promote an understanding of the cultural and geographic relationships among peoples. Sjoquist (1993) believes that the promotion of cultural literacy can help students respond well to change and diversity in their own lives. The problem lies in trying to fit global education into the general education curriculum, since instructors often do not have the background to teach such courses, and students often do not have the requisite reading skills. Sjoquist advocates a "diffusionist" method for teaching world civilization courses based on "topical" organization, such as studying the topic "unusual creativity" across time and cultures in a World Civilizations course.
