All's well that ends well

Jane made it home ok, and I made it back to Deming ok. The bugs dampened the fun more than a bit but we had a nice visit in spite of it all. Some rest and we should be good as new and ready to start thinking about the next get together a couple years down the line.

Observational Learning

[Learning by watching] is called observational learning. When it comes to evolutionary fears, as well as to many other areas of learning, animals and people learn by watching what other animals or people do, not by doing something themselves and learning from the consequences. I have the impression this lesson hasn't quite been absorbed by most educators. You read that hands-on learning is best, but that may not always be so. Obviously evolution has selected for strong observational learning in animals and in humans.
