When a black 2nd-year student educator gets chased away from a school whilst doing his teaching practice for hair ‘not setting an appropriate example to learners’, the incident elicits questions about the rights of student educators during teaching practice, as well as the extent to which universities and schools care for, support and prepare student educators for the realities of schooling in South Africa. ![]() This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution,Īnd reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

He realizes that there must be someone on that speck of dust and hurries to bring it to safety because “A person’s a person no matter how small.” He places thespeck on a clover, begins a conversation with the Mayor of Whoville (Steve Carell) who asks Horton to really find a safe place for Whoville – and his 96 daughters and one son named Jo-Jo – or Whoville might be destroyed.

Without criticism, nothing improves and no one learns or grows as an artist. Literature has a long tradition of writers critiquing writing, sometimes harshly. A writer, someone who lives and breathes words, is in a unique position to comment on literature and illuminate it in ways that others may not see. There's a belief among some people that authors should never criticize books, and I find that disappointing and bizarre. ![]() I prefer to put my energy into writing books rather than dealing with trolls.
