Ordering what we know
The Renaissance thread
Fabio Paolini’s Hebdomades, a Venetian treatise of 1589 built around the number seven, read as one attempt to hold body, nature, and the divine together.

How we learn, stay well, and order what we know
This is the home of my work, and the way into everything that grows from it. One question runs through all of it: how a person orders what they know, and stays whole, when they are thrown into something they do not yet command.
The work, in three threads
The work runs along three threads. They are distinct, but they rhyme, and each one has a home of its own.
Staying well under pressure
The wellbeing thread
Teacher burnout in international schools, and fostering personal care in a digital age; and, for students, how to carry pressure and keep some balance while the stakes are high.
Digited Secondary, for studentsLearning the subject and the language at once
The CLIL thread
Why I teach content and language together rather than apart. Drawn from learning languages by living and working in them, and carried into the classroom as CLIL.
Digited CLIL, for teachersDigited Notes, short essays that draw it all into a more accessible register, is still being prepared and will follow soon.
