Maryville, Tennessee [Day 1]

So I'm at a conference in Maryville, Tennessee for the next few days. A bunch of educators from the Appalachian region have gathered here at historic Maryville College for the next five days to discuss the latest, greatest strategies in learner-centered education. Much fun. The introductory speaker tonight was pretty good and I'm looking forward to hearing about some of these new teaching principles and seeing if I can employ them in my own courses.



So far, folks here have been pretty nice and I expect that things will be quite interesting. The only thing that I'm not overly fond of is that the bed are about four feet off the ground and I really have to concentrate to get on or off them. In addition, I have to share the bathroom with another guy :(. I'm so glad I never lived on dorm during my undergrad days...dorm life sux!!

Anyhow, am off to bed...long day tomorrow! Sleep tight y'all
