3 hours at the museum today answering questions, instigating conversations about Chinese bronzes.\u00a0 It was a fun time with children and adults, variously interested.\u00a0 I set out at the beginning, before people started showing up, to learn the vessel shapes.\u00a0 I looked at the shape, memorized the name and then scanned the collection for examples.\u00a0 I kept that up until I’d been through all the vessel shapes.\u00a0 While doing it, it struck me that it would be useful to put these shapes and their names into SuperMemo.\u00a0 A perfect fit.<\/p>\n
I did go through the Supermemo cycle this morning while waiting for the steamroom to heat up.\u00a0 It will take awhile to become facile with it, but once I do, it will become an important part of my learning environment.<\/p>\n
