The other day, I realised that the best place to learn is the waiting room at my doctor’s place. While being in the waiting queue you can read scientific papers:

• Nobody is disturbing you.
• While being our of office you yet don’t loose time and you can be highly productive.
• The longer you wait the more work you can do as no colleague is distracting you.

Do you know some other funny but efficient places?

The other day, I was thinking about making e-portfolios compulsory for our ActiveMath students. This requierement has two advantages:

• Students and tutors can observe learning progress.
• I can evaluate e-portfolio use over time during my PhD research.

I’ll think about an initial setup.
