Remote Lecture

I attended Catherine’s student-led conference this morning at 11:00. She and I spent twenty minutes reviewing her learnings from the first half of third term. Thereafter, I chatted with her teacher. By Noon, we were home. No school tomorrow for her.

Mark is on the mend, his stomach ailment seemingly over. He spent several hours on homework supplied by Roman Ridge School via email. He will attend classes tomorrow for the first time this week.

Tracy spent seven hours today at two different clinics for student Brooke’s medical situation. Good news: a diagnosis has been obtained and a treatment has been administered. Let’s hope that things go in the right direction!

I gave a remote lecture for the Renewable Energy Policy module at the Centre for Renewable and Sustainable Energy Studies in Stellenbosch this afternoon. I have done something similar for the last three years, sometimes in person, sometimes via Skype as it was today.

And the Vandals are charging tonight. Lots of noise and drumming. This is life at Commonwealth Hall.
