摘要：Dear Students and School Workers, School is about to begin and unless you are very lucky, the drudgery resumes. Perhaps you can challenge your friends, teachers, and colleagues, or maybe torment the worst one, with a little exercise I use at the beginning of every class: Why have school. Why are we here. I ask that question in class one, advising students that I will follow it with these: . What are the main things going on in school. . What are the main things going on in society. . What might your answers have to do with each other. Having done the interactive dialogue frequently, I can usually predict most of the student responses–but never all, and sometimes not the funniest ones. Part of your task as a real student is to seek answers to the question: who am I in relation to others, and what shall I therefore do. Asking our key question may help. One good scenario: you will recapture the view that most very young children have, fairly quickly fogged over by much of schooling: I can understand and change the world.
