Ribeiro 2 Feb. 8, 98 Our Pedagogical Method - Take Ownership It often happens that two students can solve difficulties in their work for one another better than the master can. When you took the problem to a master, as we all remember, he was likely to explain what you understood already, to add a great deal of information which you didn’t want, and say nothing at all about the thing which was puzzling you. I have watched this from both sides of the net; for when, as a teacher myself, I have tried to answer questions brought to me by pupils, I have sometimes, after a minute, seen that expression settle down on their faces which assured me that they were suffering exactly the same frustration which I had suffered from my own teachers. The fellow student can help more than the master because he knows less. The difficulty we want him to explain is one that he has recently met. The expert met it so long ago that he has forgotten. He sees the whole subject, by now, in such a different light that he cannot conceive what is really troubling the student; he sees a dozen other difficulties which ought to be troubling him but aren’t. C.S.L. The Right Wife For a good wife contains so many persons in herself. What was H (Joy) not to me? She was my daughter and my mother, my pupil and my teacher, my subject and my sovereign; and always, holding all these in solution, my trusty comrade, friend, shipmate, fellow-soldier. My mistress; but at the same time all that any man friend (and I have good one) has ever been to me. Perhaps more... Solomon calls his bride Sister. Could a woman be a complete wife unless, for a moment, in one particular mood, a man felt almost inclined to call her Brother? C.S.L.
