contemplation

I suppose it is different to people studying all the time and used to thinking as an Academic. I am used to thinking from the ground level as a TL or from the classroom and find that I know what to say and what I want to say and could back up a lot of it with loads of experience but it wouldn't be referenced properly or  sound right. I am finding these subjects very interesting and I really want to get stuck into it but the amount of support materials and background readings that you get these days is quite overwhelming I feel that I really need to write a masterpiece to at least pay some respect to the preparation and scaffolding that is put in place for students of today... wow this is big!
