For my score of years teaching, my interests:

• green building,
• trades math,
• test prep for Local Union Entrance Exams,
• Science and Computer Labs,
• Chemistry
  (and Biology/Math in a pinch when I was short on the rent).

My first ID work assignment (assigned this month 🙌) is completely out of my league: Life Skills. My manifest has consistently tacked towards a reputation as “super SME,” someone who knows his content area every which way, and on top of that, is well trained on online ID.

So “interest” is hardly accurate,
fear & trepidation,
closer.

The President where I work is interested in developing a Life Skills curriculum. I know it has something to do this child care form. At my last meeting it was observed it’s “unjust.” I emphatically agree.

There, is my first, and currently only, divergent point to reflect upon what my problem/topic area/theme for my product/service OR curriculum activity that I find [interesting] (so far).

Every year in NYC, millions of disbursed monies are not picked up, because we can’t type in the text box online forms, upload the picture, train our eyeballs on the correct part of the screen, uneasy about texting the government personal information. Sometimes, English skills are the overarching barrier, othertimes, computer skills, and so on.
