Sorry to hear about Dick Hanson. I met hi...Hi Tom,<br />Sorry to hear about Dick Hanson. I met him when I started my own journey in teaching in 1990 (when you and I met) and enjoyed his style and philosophy, especially his joy of technology.<br />I'm still fooling around with the education thing but am frustrated with the lack of enthusiasm by math people who do not seem to be inspired by the software coming to market. The ones I know are still in love with chalk and chalk-board. I'm trying to learn Mathematica (it is difficult) but am afraid it will be long after I'm gone that a real inroad will be seen.<br />Hope you are doing well and in good shape. Thanks for the note. <br /><br />R.E.(Dick) Velner<br />Director, Russian School of Mathematics<br />(Home of the Northeast Elite Team 7)<br />Teacher and Curriculum Principal <br />www.curriculumprincipal.com<br /> <br />Owner IRIS<br />velner@msn.com<br />Delta School of Investing<br />Cultivating the Financial GardenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
