Austin's Learning Plan - September 2011

Austin and I spent a bit of time this afternoon sketching out some ideas for his learning plan to get this "year" started. Click the image to see the full size version.

One of the big shifts from previous years is that he has a strong interest in pursuing an academic topic. He has decided to "go deep" in learning as much as he can about Chemistry. To support this he is also brushing up on his math skills and our friend Iain MacKenzie who is a research chemist now working at UBC TRIUMF has offered to show him around and provide some mentoring.

    Great stuff . . . I especially like the 5 areas of focus.
    I'm curious about the "jr. masters strength and skills" --- What is it?

    Jr. Masters is the non-competitive swimming skills development class for 12 - 17 year olds in our area.
