Educational Exhibition
Today I went to the annual Educational Exhibition. It was in a very big hall built for shows or other events, near the Youth Park. The 5000 places hall seemed smaller now than it looked 20 years ago, I wonder why.
There were lots of teaching materials, from wooden toys and books to Internet Safety, Chemistry or Physics kits or very expensive interactive blackboards. Of course the price is our problem, for teachers and schools to solve, not of the producers. But I made plans for the unlikely possibility we will ever get the 100 Euros for books and teaching stuff. Here are some photos, if you want to take a look.

you're right. Money is always the problem. and even when you have the money and get the new material, things are not the same as in the stand. We also have "students". And there we have the real problem. If they are interested in learning, anything is useful. If they are demotivated nothing is good.
I hope you get this quantity of money.
Thanks. But I slightly disagree with you. There are some students so interested in getting knowledge that they would learn in any circumstances, with any kind of methods and material you use. But they are more and more rare. There are those who will not learn even if you dance on the ceiling or use the wildest gadgets. But there is the majority that can, to some variable extent, be attracted, if the teacher has the means and most of all the time, patience, inspiration to find the way to do it. Otherwise, there are so many better things to do for them...But sometimes, all this "negotiation" is very difficult. As you know...
