Perhaps you are as amazed as I am to see this issue. My amazement starts with the date – it is already May and a time of year I greet with mixed emotions. Another academic year has ended (how did that happen so fast?) and I find myself reviewing my accomplishments (a list that always seems too short) and brooding about my failures (a list that always seems too long). I reflect on my students and what we did together and quickly begin to plan what I will do (so much better!) next time. It is the beginning of summer “break” (perhaps yours is a little further off) and I am sure I will accomplish all the tasks on my list that is far too long.
This is a time for rejuvenation, restoration, reflection, and revision. It also time to start thinking about the changes I want to make in...
