Teachers should teach nothing.
Students should learn nothing.
Students should know nothing.

Nothing is worth teaching.
Nothing is worth learning….
Nothing Matters

Read the whole thing — I’ve had students stop after the first section, but the whole page expresses a single unified thought that develops from the first “Nothing Matters” section.

I’ve blogged this before. It’s too bad so many links are dead, but this page was first posted in 1996. Steve, maybe this will help!

  • Glad to hear it. There are good days and not-so-good days when you're teaching.

  • Thanks. I'll give it a try. But, thank goodness, our class conversational dynamics have improved greatly in the last two sessions. Today they were getting excited about questions instead of answers, and what more could I ask for?
