Stories, Images and Videos
Every year I told my students that my class was all about finding ways to enable them to see anew, deeply, broadly — to make connections, one idea to another to another.
Once they began to hone or acquire that fresher perspective, it can become a continual, evolving part of their thinking, and thus keep a sense of wonder for the infinite world alive in them.
“To See” is meant to encourage all who opens these links to open their eyes wide. Me too.
