How I saw the light and became a scaffolder.

The article discusses the author's experiences of becoming a scaffolder. Earlier, the author used to do teaching. The author got training to explore the curriculum and be the ultimate authority. The author was never really comfortable with that idea. The author half-heartedly attended a course on assessment for learning which had revolutionized his thinking and practice forever. The author has enjoyed his new job as a scaffolder because he focuses less on his teaching and more on learning. The success of his lessons depends on adopting a low profile and allowing children to maintain ownership of their learning.
