Informative Solutions (Learning and Education: Sharing Knowledge)
Operation 'Learning Links', established May 2006

I love to learn. Not many days pass by that I'm not trying to learn something. In my case, this is typically related to technology, and over the last 5-10 years, it's been even more so with regards to web development. What I enjoy even more, however, is when kids learn. To actually see their brains at work; calculating, figuring, solving: It's fascinating! This in mind, I'm dedicating a link to a site on my main page that provide different aspects of learning. I will then rotate them out every 1-12 months, providing enough time for them to gain at least some additional exposure. By providing links to sites of this nature on my main page, I'm hoping it will help to lift their status if even just a bit. The same goes in keeping past links to sites here on the Past "Learning Links" page.

Philosophical Questions from Children's Stories.
We have assembled question sets for children’s books that raise philosophical issues. All you need to do is to read one of the children’s books suggested by our site aloud to a group of elementary school children. Then use the question sets to guide you in encouraging the children to discuss the issues. We have also provided guidelines for each book which identify and discuss the philosophical issues raised by the stories.

Other Considerations Were

The following are links that were considered for the highlight, but for one slight reason or another just didn't make the page (but remember, they were considered well enough to make it here).
