Time In Time Out

I'm way too scheduled and need to take time to "smell the roses". That is what I get to do every time I'm in class. I have the opportunity to mull over ideas with my peers, to discuss what I've read, to challenge and be challenged, to consider the ideas of others. So when I'm not reading and not writing, I'm still learning. As an adjunct professor, I have missed out on meaningful discussions with my colleagues at IWU and TU. Because I have an office at IWU, I do have more opportunities to connect. That is what I think Geller et. al. is talking about when tutors aren't tutoring during scheduled times.
