Have You Seen? “Finding Forrester”

Poem: How Wonderful by Irving Feldman 

Statement of the Whole: In this episode we look at a film that reflects on teaching.  Is there redemptive value in the teacher/student relationship?  Can education bring together people who have almost nothing in common?  What is the role of cross generational relationships in education?  Steve and Jason talk about a film that takes on these questions and a whole lot more.
