Australian Education

Australian education goes Outcome Based. Reactions are mixed.

All three samples state students should not be penalised for “poor spelling, punctuation, grammar or handwriting”. Students are also permitted to draw answers or write them in dot form.

Modern Art

The local paper (subscription only–bleh!) is sponsering a “Peeps as Art” contest (pssst, S-R, photoshop contest next year, kthx).

Rock on, my peep brotha’

If only the red Lego were a dull grey puzzle piece everything would be fine. Wouldn’t it be the grey puzzle pieces that are racist for not letting the red Lego fit in?

There ought to be a law
