For me, that’s what creativity is - playing with found objects, reconstructing things that already exist, transforming ideas or stories I already know. It’s not about the colonisation of new territory, it’s about exploring inwards, examining your existing presumptions, squinting at the archive of experience from new angles, and hoping for some sort of revelation. What really matters is whether we as readers continue to think about the things we have read and seen long after the final page is turned. (2011)

"Crap detection," as Hemingway called it half a century ago, is more important than ever before, now that the automation of crapcasting has generated its own word: "spamming."

RESSURGIREMOS
Ressurgiremos ainda sob os muros de Cnossos
E em Delphos centro do mundo
Ressurgiremos ainda na dura luz de Creta
Ressurgiremos ali onde as palavras
São o nome das coisas
E onde são claros e vivos os contornos
Na aguda luz de Creta
Ressurgiremos ali onde pedra estrela e tempo
São o reino do homem
Ressurgiremos para olhar para a terra de frente
Na luz limpa de Creta
Pois convém tornar claro o coração do homem
E erguer a negra exactidão da cruz
Na luz branca de Creta
english version:
WE WILL RISE
We will rise again beneath the walls of Knossos
And in Delphi the centre of the world
We will rise again in the harsh light of Crete
We will rise where words
Are the names of things
Where outlines are clear and vivid
There in the sharp light of Crete
We will rise where stone the stars and time
Are the kingdom of man
We will rise to stare straight at the earth
In the clean light of Crete
For it is good to clarify the heart of man
And to lift the black exactness of the cross
In the white light of Crete.
Manuel da Fonseca, em centenário comemorável (1911-1993), um poema memorável cantado pelo Adriano Correia de Oliveira.
Tu e Eu Meu Amor
Tu e eu meu amor
meu amor eu e tu
que o amor meu amor
é o nu contra o nu.
Nua a mão que segura
outra mão que lhe é dada
nua a suave ternura
na face apaixonada
nua a estrela mais pura
nos olhos da amada
nua a ânsia insegura
de uma boca beijada.
Tu e eu meu amor
meu amor eu e tu
que o amor meu amor
é o nu contra o nu.
Nu o riso e o prazer
como é nua a sentida
lágrima de não ver
na face dolorida
nu o corpo do ser
na hora prometida
meu amor que ao nascer
nus viemos à vida.
Tu e eu meu amor
meu amor eu e tu
que o amor meu amor
é o nu contra o nu.
Nua nua a verdade
tão forte no criar
adulta humanidade
nu o querer e o lutar
dia a dia pelo que há-de
os homens libertar
amor que a eternidade
é ser livre e amar.
Tu e eu meu amor
meu amor eu e tu
que o amor meu amor
é o nu contra o nu.

What will become of reference collections in public, academic, and school libraries? How do librarians and reference publishers make e-reference content more discoverable? Are they doing enough to meet the changing needs of today’s researchers?
O Hub é um lobby australiano em defesa das bibliotecas escolares e da sua qualidade.
What is The Hub on PhotoPeach
Next time you, as a school administrator, might be thinking of no longer funding book purchases for the library, cutting the library budget further, deploying your TL to other roles in the school, not including a TL in your staffing formula, replacing your TL with an unqualified ‘library manager’ or moving your library into cyberspace, remember that 14 years of replicated and validated research shows that school libraries DO make a difference to student achievement. Such decisions are ‘worst practice’. Our students need ‘best practice’ actions to improve schools’ returns from this authentic investment in children’s learning.
The Hub has made an effort to publish for principals and teachers, alerting them both to the research.Kerry Neary “School libraries: making a difference“ published in its original form in The Queensland Principal: the Journal of the Association of State School Principals Inc., Vol. 3, No. 3, September 2007. Some minor changes have been made here to accommodate a wider audience. Also republished in ConnectionsVol 69 Term 2 2009. Updated and republished for an Australia wide audience:The Australian Educational Leader 2009.Recently, ACER published our article in their Teacher journal (Jan/Feb 2011), “Who’s in your school library? by Georgia Phillips.Although not refereed academic articles, the articles for principals by Sue Spence have alerted them to the research and provided the enlightened views of some principals.Sue Spence “Creating 21st century learning communities“. Principal MattersVASSP, Melbourne, Victoria. Issue No. 67, Winter 2006, and “Teacher librarians, an under utilised asset in schools,” in Curriculum Leadership, Vol 3 Issue 14, 20 May 2005.Also Marlene Filippi had her article on teacher librarians published in Australian Educational Leader (Vol 30 No 3 2008), "Are you the Principal of an information literate school community?" It is provided on The Hub website with permission of the author.The Hub has early on taken the decision to direct its publishing efforts toward those outside of the TL profession, including parents. Has it had any impact? Difficult to say.Georgia Phillips on 03/03/2011 04:21:08
Os jogos das crianças incorporam as novas tecnologias e os novos conteúdos, facilmente revelando que nem sempre o novo é assim tão diferente no essencial.
Essencial são elas...
Playtime show us essential (children playing and changing easily) and not so important (new names, new technologies, new toys, same playing mode...)
Embora exija saber inglês e usar Google Chrome ou Forefox, vale a pena...
