Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/09/02/personal-electronic-devices-in-seminary-if-not-now-when/ You can fight it, but in the end you know who is going to win. In my opinion, it is definitely time to consider how to help seminary students use their personal electronic devices (PEDs) appropriately in class when the Church keeps using these types of photos and including the following types of statements: Students […]

Downloaded from: http://seminaryatsixam.blogspot.com/2013/09/welcome-to-seminary-2013.html Seminary is in session!Below is the quote that met my students on the first day of class.As they arrive each day, they open their journals and copy down the quote and questions I have posted on the easel.

Downloaded from: http://brosimonsays.wordpress.com/2013/08/28/day-2-the-objective/ On day 2 we focused on understanding the objectives of the Book of Mormon and Seminary.

The building to which we are assigned is far outside our ward…
