* I can't quite remember the title of an essay I read years ago, nor can I remember the author, but the title had these words: doing harm while intending to do good.*
Well, duh, Bev. Thankfully internet development is inversely related to my ability to remember, and it sometimes puts me out of my misery. How could I possibly have forgotten it was Sam Meisels who wrote this article: Doing harm by doing good: latrogenic effects of early childhood enrollment and promotion policies? Maybe someone should write a new essay "Doing harm by overusing the medical model and 'prescribing' instruction rather than teaching students what they really need to know." _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list Mosaic@literacyworkshop.org To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
