Learning and Doing

I love to learn.  I seriously do.  I'm not to big a fan of homework and projects and papers and such, but the learning - I LOVE it. As a teacher, I have to go to workshops and take classes to keep my certifications current, so I get to indulge my love of learning.  However those aren't always the topics I want to study.  This summer, I took a math class for several reason.  First, I can use it toward my certification renewals, but also, I am really horrible at math, and this class helped me and will allow me to help my students.  So while I got to indulge my love of learning, it still wasn't a topic that I had a burning passion to learn more about, and I had to shell out some serious money to pay for the college class.  Paying isn't necessarily a negative, but it can get rather expensive. I needed to find a place where I could indulge my love of learning without breaking the bank, AND have an opportunity to learn about things just for the fun of it.  There are night classes offered during the school year at a neighboring school…
