Rip Van Winkle awakens in the 21st century after a hundred-year snooze and is, of course, utterly bewildered by what he sees. Man and women dash about, talking to small metal devices pinned to their ears. Young people sit at home on sofas, moving miniature athletes around on electronic screens…Airports, hospitals, shopping malls-every place Rip goes just baffles him. But when he finally walks into a schoolroom, the old man knows exactly where he is. “This is school,” he declares. “We used to have these back in 1906. Only now the blackboards are green.”~A joke exchanged by educators from Wallis and Steptoe (2006, p.50).

Teachers must inspire as well as instruct.
