QUOTE : Don’t be surprised if you open up one of these references and find your eyes crossing at the<br />site of what appears to be a completely separate language: “transformative enculturation<br />through legitimate peripheral situated participation in a practice community…” It may inspire<br />you to reject it all outright. But also don’t forget the words of Kurt Lewin: “There’s nothing more<br />practical than a good theory!” And know that whatever happens in a given educational situation, it’s following someone’s theories and beliefs, conscious or not. Thus, it’s better to think<br />about it and make sure it makes sense. Then get back to the tinkering.
