I am sure you are one of those individuals that love to learn.  If you are anything like me, you even think learning is fun.  But have you ever asked yourself why?  Or better yet, have you asked, how long has it been that way?  Many of you urban educators are facing students daily that don't seem to be infatuated with learning like yourself.  So why don't we challenge ourselves to understand why we can't wait to learn something new and what was it that cultivated the craving for knowledge in our lives?   If we can tap into that, maybe we can tap into our students.
