| | What I'm reading *
I've always read. While growing up, reading was a refuge when I found life too unpleasant or stressful. Consequently I've bought a lot of books over time as well.
Now that I'm no longer in the rich corporate phase of my life I've rediscovered the library. Dayton's library may be maligned by some but is still a great resource. One type of book I like to read is gay fiction and I was surprised to see a lot of it in the Dayton library's catalog. Plus you can even ask them to buy particular titles, and they will!
Below you can see the five most recent books either that I'm reading or that I've acquired. You can search my books, or you can see all my books. Also my classes page has links back to this page for the books for each class.

| 2004-03-29 | 1929229143 | A Framework for Understanding Poverty | Payne, Ruby K. | EDS333 | | | This is one of the books for my EDS333 (Learning Differences) class this quarter. Most people think of children with disabilities (blind, deaf, mentally challenged, etc.) when they think of children with special educational needs, but children living in poverty also have special needs. Public education has been based on the assumption that students come from white middle class backgrounds, and that's certainly not true, especially in urban schools. | |
