I love being able to do research in the
classroom spontaneously. An example was when a
student did a report on Yasar Arafat. She
mentioned that he was the leader of the PLO. I
could tell that no one had any idea of what the
PLO is. We went online and students were amazed
to discover that the PLO is a terrorist
organization and that Arafat has called for
bombings and assassinations at various
times.That is a prime example of success. They
were so excited to discover that on their own,
not just have me (the know-it-all) tell them.
