Over the years I have written creative non-fiction related to the curricula I produced, first as an elementary school art instructor, then for nearly two decades as a museum education curator. While any curriculum I wrote was based on facts as well as best and accepted practices, to add imaginative interest and encourage my students’ engagement I put those facts in the context of stories, invented situations that brought to life the remote or unfamiliar
WORD SUGGESTIONS
A college student was in a philosophy class which had a discussion about God's existence. The professor presented the following logic:"Has anyone in this class heard God?" Nobody spoke."Has anyone in this class touched God?" Again, nobody spoke."Has anyone in this class seen God?" When nobody spoke for the third time, he simply stated, "Then there is no God."One student thought for a second, and then asked for permission to reply. Curious to hear this bold student's response, the professor granted it, and the student stood up and asked the following questions of his classmates:"Has anyone in this class heard our professor's brain?" Silence."Has anyone in this class touched our professor's brain?" Silence."Has anyone in this class seen our professor's brain?" When nobody in the class dared to speak, the student concluded, "Then, according to our professor' s logic, it must be true that our professor has no brain!"You can't argue with that!
