Being an Educator (a tanget from technology)

As a graduate student in education, we are not just learning for our own sake. We are learning on behalf of each person who may become our student one day. The details and time required for this class are immense, especially since one tiny detail neglected in a code can throw the entire page into chaos. But it's worth it, knowing that the interdependency, when executed correctly, results in something practical and useful - not only for us, but for those who will come later. (And it's definitely helping improve my problem-solving skills.... Though I have to admit, staring at the screen gives me a bit of a headache if I do it for too many hours at a time!)
