A Word from Ken Craddock

The poets would have seen it first. Levels of capability.Cognitive differences. The way people react to each other. If the poets saw it, they would have written about it.  They did.  And they put it in their plays and movies for all of us to see before us.

I have made two lists to show the behaviors of people - one of movies, one of works of literature. These are for teaching and for convincing. Whenever you run into resistance to these ideas, a film clip can illustrate this dynamic in action. Some people can read about it and are convinced that it exists. Some people have to see it, rather than read about it.

Teachers and consultants can use these scenes and tales to show this approach in action. You are not alone. Others have seen this before you.

But be warned - these are not simple tales.  Each movie, for example, has been a hit and is a complex work of art. So be sure to see it first before you show it to an audience. Be ready for questions.

Share your adventures with me, especially the questions you get. I will share them with others to improve our ability to quickly and fully explain these ideas.
