    The topic of discussion will be Runaway Chicken, Rotten Herring and Kabob Pizza: Reflections about how small bites and second helpings feed teaching and learning internationally and at home. Hagstrom writes, It is not what we teach, but how we engage learners that feeds the soul of the instructor and contributes to a world made better by our students. I call this \u27engaged learning,\u27 a term that applies to both as teachers learn from students in the process of teaching, and students - as their mindsets move from other, to joint, to self-regulated learning - become their own teachers. Tales of unexpected experiences shared in this session will focus on reflection, both that of the learner and teacher, as the active ingredient that scaffolds human development in the context of formal education. Let\u27s envision possible futures as we share food for thought. Hagstrom is the associate professor of communication sciences and disorders and currently interim associate dean for international education

    : In this paper conversational repetitions are analyzed using an activity theory model. Social relatedness was seen as the organizing activity, conversation as an action of this and a specific telephone conversation as a concrete, spatialtemporal condition for investigation. When the talk of a dementing person was analyzed from the perspective of selfmaintenance, connections between repetitive conversational themes and issues of self appeared. These were not, however, effectively used or shared between the conversational parties resulting in a breakdown in conversational involvement. The words that reached her were meaningless but she replied at random just the same. She still felt the need to communicate. (Ernaux, 1991, p.83). Introduction The need to communicate, to maintain a persistent self has been described as a fundamental task in the aging process (Tobin, 1988).
