Ministry is complete...

We visited the Ministry today. It was a posh experience, not too disimilar from visiting with Dr. Bergeson. Minister Toucan is a forward thinking man, who I would really respect at the helm of my education system. Jordan is at the beginning of some additional educational reform, much like all of us, as we try to prepare of a future that is completely unknown to us. I wish them luck and hope that if they find any magic keys to success, our connection with this country via this program will help us to export some of the ideas. And vice versa, should we find the key first.

While at the Ministry I got to see two of my new favorite Jordanians, Mohammed from the Ministry who greeted us that first day at the airport and King Abdullah II. I have come to look forward to how he, the King, will be featured in pictures as there are many different versions posted everywhere!!!

We also visited JEI, which is the Jordanian Education Initiative, which is a link between private and public sectors with education as the focal point. It would be an excellent connect with the JET Fellowship. And I LOOOOOOOVE hearing Mimi talk of wanting to bring us, the original ten, together again in the future for other projects. Maybe Spain next?
