15. What travels around the world
staying in the same corner?
It only increases and never
decreases. What is it?
What can be seen once in a
minute, twice in a moment,
and never in a thousand years?

126. The whole process of
education should thus be
conceived as the process
of learning to think
through the solution of
real problems.
-- John Dewey, 1938
127. A real problem must have a
personal frame of reference,
since it involves an
emotional or affective
commitment as well as an
intellectual or cognitive one.
128. A real problem does NOT
have an existing or
unique solution.
129. Calling something a problem
does NOT make it a REAL
problem for a given person
or group.
130. The purpose of pursuing a
real problem is to bring
about some form of
CHANGE and/or to
contribute something new
to the sciences, the arts, or
the humanities.

Magaret Mead

Always remember, you

to reach for the stars
