Why?

Saturday again, we turn our review to English.

Today we have a video where, after an initial question, his young daughter does nothing but ask “why” maybe a dozen times. The interaction illustrates the point I always make, only half jokingly, that if you go beyond the classical Lean “5 Whys,” you end up blaming society and that’s no longer a productive problem solving exercise. Enjoy!

And remember that you have more options to enjoy English with us:

• My twitter list Practise English.
• My paper.ly Practise English.

Enjoy the weekend!

Friday [14/01/2010]: Exams!
One way to combat anxiety before to divide the questions is to take a white sheet and a few minutes to write about what worries them. This simple exercise releases the intellectual capital necessary to complete the test successfully, as the conclusion of a team of researchers from the University of Chicago. Scientists have shown that students who download their concerns on paper drew better academically than those who did not. The results are published in the latest issue of the journal Science.
