Two members of our IU School of Informatics community have been working for the past year on Big Tree Top, a networking tool designed to allow local businesses to think like major corporations and leverage the collective wisdom of their customers. BTT is on the verge of releasing a product into the wild after a summer of iteration, looking for a critical mass in communities like Bloomington.
School Daze– Part Two
Archie: Wake up, Carter! It’s morningtime! Let’s play!
Carter: I can’t get up, Archie. Then I’d have to do more homework.
Me: (string of curse words, hopefully only in my head) Carter, you don’t have to do homework. You can play with Archie.
Carter: I can’t go to school unless I’ve done my homework. She’ll be angry at me.
Me: You’re not going to school today. It’s a mental health day. We’re going to putz around and go to a park- whatever you want to do to de-stress.
Carter: You mean like homeschooling for a day?
