The Times They Are A Changin'

Day 1 of school is complete. I can complain about things I don't have, but I'd prefer to focus on the positive.

I'd like to go as paperless as possible. I'm very close to that point. I'd like to make my classroom a student-centered classroom. I want my students to actually control some of how the class is run - and that's scary to think about, but also really exciting.

This song came on earlier today and I couldn't help but agree.


A couple things I find interesting about this video and Dylan:
  1. 50 years after writing this PROTEST song he's singing it at the White House.
  2. I love how you practically never hear Dylan perform a song the same way twice. Nice touch with the piano, Bob. Some people might be annoyed by that. Not me.
