Accessible Digital Recorders<BR>><BR>><BR>>So, essentially, I use my

depends on what I need them for and how long<BR>>it, the recording will be
and what type of recording it is...it is<BR>>generally a preference thing,

full of light, and <BR>>love, and music and that each student
<BR>>deserves--and will have--their own place in it <BR>>and the chance
to play their own song.<BR>>And, as much of these expectations are
<BR>>transmitted non-verbally—and in Chela’s <BR>>case--out of sight…it
is the voice and touch of <BR>>a Teacher that sheds light on what the world
can be.<BR>>Academics—and no one will ever change my mind on
<BR>>this—take a distant second place. —Dr. Bil
