Conditions of Joint Attention: Connecting
<br>In her book, <I>Apprenticeship in Thinking: Cognitive Development in Social Context </I>(1990), Barbara Rogoff spends a fair amount of time going over the concept of joint attention, particularly in the parent-child relationship. A lot of people might refer to this as “connecting” with a child, but I think there’s something about the word “connecting” that makes the process seem magical and beyond the control of an individual. Establishing joint attention, on the other hand, is an effortful process – not in the sense that it is difficult to do, or even that it has to be done consciously, but in the sense that it is a process in which two people choose to engage.

Over worked and under paid, but that's not the problem!
You want better education for your children? Then please do NOT be deceived by the Republican Party and the Christian Coalition who want us to accept a pay raise while they busily segregate our upper echelon kids away to private schools and think we'll be happy. It's all about them not wanting their kids mixed with the less fortunate kids. It's a pay off, my friend, not a pay raise. It's not the money that will make us better teachers and it's not whether you teach in a private school or a public school. It's how much responsibility we ALL choose to bear from birth through-out graduation.
