Last week I addressed a class of language-teachers-in-training about the use of Forty-Second Boyd's OODA loop in tracking student behavior and responses and adjusting lesson plans accordingly.<br/><br/>It's a language class. If they take the topic away from your pre-planned thing but they're still using the language, you need to react and adapt to their interests and keep them interested, NOT shut them down by beating them over the head with the syllabus. The OODA (Observation - Orientation - Decision - Action) loop, despite its original intended purposes, works GREAT as a mental map for how to keep a bunch of learners interested and active. If you wanted to focus on verb conjugation and they want to talk about a news program in the new language which they all watched, just start using those verb conjugations IN that conversation. And if they ask for clarification, clarify then go back to what they were interested in. :)<br/><br/>In teaching, student interest is the terrain. And you damned well have to adjust your plans to that terrain and operate in it, or you won't get very far. </blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Well ma'am, that certainly is a very militant approach to teaching. I am not sure if I should be attracted to it or amazed  ???<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=199515.msg9758032#msg9758032">Quote from: CarnivalOfTheGoat on 24-03-2014, 05:56:37</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I'm not sure. One way to look at this adjustment would be 'He has to make connections and contacts to help support his people if/when he does awaken them.' versus 'He has limited time available for interest in others or involvement in their goings-on due to his obligations to his (active and giving him instructions) command structure.'<br/><br/>Might put a better spin on it?<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Well I do like that I can put a crazy spin on him now. However in the end I agree with you that he forces him to at least mingle with people to hear about leads that will support his end goal of getting the people out.<br/><br/><hr/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=199515.msg9758053#msg9758053">Quote from: Cold Heritage on 24-03-2014, 06:00:01</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Do you want it to be like one of those up-armoured humvies with a machine gun on it? You've got 5-barter worth of hi-tech, so it could have like an MG (3-harm  close/far  area  messy), 3-armour for anyone inside, a first aid kit that's like an Angel Kit with 2-stock, a radio (like, the kind where people talk to each other), and a music system (do humvies have those? Well, yours can, if your heart desires, along with some CDs so you can wow the wastelands with music appropriate to Q and his unit's musical tastes; caveat: one member of Q's unit was really into Nu-Metal). We don't need to worry about an actual profile unless you have designs to purchase No Shit Driver.<br/><br/>I figure since this is so one-time, you ought to get a BEAST.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Well I'd probably build it just for the heck of it. One M1151 is enough for a fireteam and the SL. So yeah I suppose that would be fine and the music system would be jury rigged from the boombox in the Ark's recreation area. Actually how about a Joint Light Tac Vehicle?<br/><br/>http://oshkoshdefense.com/vehicles/m-atv/
