It is coming up on 2 years since I started this blog back in February of 2010 and I’ve posted about 150 times since then. I especially want to thank Thomas Neuville, Associate Professor in the Special Education Department at Millersville University in Pennsylvania (US) and executive producer of the DVD set of human service history lectures given by Dr. Wolfensberger and Susan Thomas (also see blog post here)–it was Thomas who encouraged me to start a blog in the first place.
One of my goals from the beginning of this blog was to generate online discussion of SRV-related ideas, both in terms of SRV training and SRV implementation. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you who follow the blog and also to strongly encourage you to use this blog as a resource for online discussion about SRV teaching and implementation. If we can focus our posts and comments within an SRV framework, I think this could be another great learning tool about SRV. I am always open of course to suggestions about this and any aspect of the blog.
You will notice under each post the name of the blogger who put up the post, either myself or Steve Tiffany, a regular guest blogger. You will also notice a button labeled ‘Leave a comment.’ Click on that button and you will be guided through the simple process of leaving a written comment which will appear below the post. Notice also that when a posting has been commented on, this will also be indicated after the particular post. I hope to see more of these indications soon! If you click on the title of the post, it will open up with all the comments showing, which can make the post and comments a bit easier to read and reply to.
Thank you for reading and we encourage you to post your SRV related comments, questions, examples, additional perspectives, and so on. Happy new year!
Marc
Hi Marc! Thanks for the blog – I get email notifications every time it’s updated and read all the contributions. I shall make a more concerted effort to leave comments and questions… Happy New Year to you and Jo also.
Dear Juliette. Wonderful! I know you think deeply about these issues and would very much welcome your comments, examples and questions. Looking forward to it! Marc
Thanks Marc. It’s great that you’ve continued this blog. And thanks too for the tip about clicking on the title of the blog as a quick link to the blog-site.
Also, not sure whether you noticed, the facebook link to the SRV blog about the nursing home has generated 2 comments so far – yay.
Onwards and upwards.
Dear Jane, thanks so much for the Facebook link. The comments have been great and we look forward to more! Marc
Thanks for the instructions Marc…I thought I was blogging when I was only emailing…I, too, am interested in some discussion on-line and then to take to others…Janet
