[applekeynote] primary rule of communication

Don -- I'm not sure I agree with this definition of the primary rule of communication.
Putting all the responsibility on the communicator is like saying 'If the student hasn't
learned then the teacher hasn't taught.' When I was in grad school studying about
education I believed that, but when I started teaching I realized it wasn't true.

Check out 'Learning Not to Teach' by Jerry Harvey at George Washington U:

Read #10 first.

P.S. I have a question... I guess for Brian, but others too. I notice that some messages like
Don's don't wrap correctly on Yahoo Groups. That happens to my messages, too. It
happens when I log into the group and Post the message, and it happens when I email a
message to the group. It will probably happen to this message, too. I can avoid the ugly
wrap by manually hitting the Return key at the end of every line, but that's a pain. Is there
a better way to avoid ugly line ending wrapping?

Many thanks!

Dave
