One reason that I haven’t blogged much for a few weeks is that so much of what I’ve been working on has not been public knowledge. Much of the CFG as Research Team (CART) grant preparations and scoring had to be kept under wraps. Now that the awards have been announced, I feel like I can breathe again. This goes back to a tension that I wrote about at a Teacher As Researcher meeting and in one of the traveling journals for the portfolio group: How can I make my practice public and retain a feeling of safety? What are the implications of making my own practice public when so much of what I do is collaborative?
