Regarding yesterday’s entry Eyes or Ears:
After watching the clip I have to say that I am even more distrusting of TV, Film, Video as a medium to relay deep information. The clip shows that I cannot trust a politician or teacher (spiritual or otherwise), whom I have only witnessed in video form. It highlights the importance of oral communication and being there, as I wrote earlier.
And a good reason why teaching phonics as the main source for learning to read just doesn’t work.
