Hey that is a smart way to define curriculum...by stating your "present" definition is to allow you to adapt it or modify it in ways you cannot yet forsee. Very wise for such a young fella.

Miles, I really like your idea of life long learners and the need for us to model that behavior for our students. With pharm. techs, isn't imperative that they continue to learn their whole career because everything changes so fast, so somthing that I tell them may be out of date before they even start teaching. I've always kind of thought that I'm a bit of a role model for my students, but just never connected the 2 ideas before. Thanks I'm gonna work on that and how to go mr. smarty pants!!! darcy

Current definition - I like that and I think I might start all of my thoughts and statements with "My current opinion is..." because as I continue on this journey and learn, I change my mind and my opinion regularly.
