- A 25-person raid is the same size as a class, and like a class its leader can only take it to places places that it is willing to go. Teaching, like learning to down a boss, is about helping people grow their comfort zone by getting them to spend time outside of it. The question is how to push people so that they will be ready to learn, instead of ready to tear their hair out.
Bascially an article in 'Inside Higher Education' that compares raiding (specifically leading) to teaching. Ag and I have said that we want to be teachers... /cackle //cackle cackle | |

| im scared for Ag's students if they forget to do their homework, or don't pull their weight in group assignments...
I know it's not the same, but I've been a preschool teacher, and also led raids. It is incredibly similar. I can imagine Ag being like Death's granddaughter in the Terry Pratchett books...hehe.
Now I feel nerdy. | |
