Effective Learning Means Being a Student of and for Life

Learning new information is difficult. Learning does not always come as naturally and comfortably as might be thought. There are three fundamental problems to effective learning. The first is that students are never really taught how to learn. Second, they are never introduced to the obstacles to learning and, more specifically, third, they are never given strategies to overcome the obstacles. It doesn't matter how old a student is, the physical setting in which learning is to occur, or the delivery methods used to convey the information. If these basic problems are not addressed, learning may be inhibited if not terminated entirely, and what can be a disaster for students, is that their ability or willingness to be students of and for life can be extinguished.

The And Then Some philosophy is not only explained in the speech at the back of the book, but essay 18, "'And Then Some' is a Value-Added Approach to the Good Life," develops the approach even further. Both the speech and the essay encourage readers to be students of and for life everyday of their lives. It is that strategy---that way of thinking---that forms both the foundation of and the cornerstone for andthensomeworks.com.

On a day like September 11th it is hard to find words to say. And Then Some... "student of life"... can sound hollow and hard to reach. Well... it is. But in the end somehow, in some way And Then Some works. It's tough.. and that's why we want to hear how you have made "And Then Some" work for you.

What is And Then Some working on now? Currently we are working on a better way to contact us. This has been a known trouble spot and we are currently working to resolve the issue. We are trying to resolve another problem spot which is working to get your stories posted, whether linked to our blog or posted on our blog. Currently the task is troublesome; the stories are neither easy to read nor see without going through a bunch of hassles.

And Then Some Book 1 release schedule will be posted on September 14th, 2007.

Thank you... And Then Some!
