Re: Mind's Eye Re: deep thought

The short story is as Gabby remembers. 20 years ago I ran a module
called Creative Organisational Practices. The essential choice for
students was to study the comparative relevance of Enid Blyton

practice (both clearly fictional) or do something "creative" to stop
me lecturing on this and do something they invented. That might be
education.
