I was like, "Midtech?" Thanks for letting us try it out. That is such a simple and powerfully cool tool. Thanks for building it to be so easy to use.

Many thanks Lyndon Owen Hi Sam

Sun, 01 Mar 2009 14:38:49 +0000 http://www.alltogetherwecan.com/?p=1218#comment-5416 That's embarrassing. There's a typo in my title that I was too lazy to fix at first and now I've been quoted. It's interesting to see you be so Meta about your education. I wish I had as much perspective. You're getting first-hand evidence about Vygotskian learning theory. Important to remember when we make demands on our clients that being in the Zone of Proximal Development is not a comfortable place to be a lot of the time. Quite often, the ZPD is confusing and stressful. That’s embarrassing. There’s a typo in my title that I was too lazy to fix at first and now I’ve been quoted.
