I read The Atlantic and bought 3 books for my friends and 1 for me. What a joy. The book dovetails nicely with what I've been reading from Steven Jonhnson's Mind Wide Open, about how the brain gets jammed up by too much electromagnetic noise, when too much is going on.

The brain is more efficient when it shuts down noise and can focus.

I'm looking for different ways of implementing the tickler method as I work in multiple settings and don't want to carry a binder full of stuff around with me.

Being an English Education teacher, I'm always on the lookout for strategies to help my students accomplish more as instructors.

Kudos!
