About this activity

Three things are involved (1) the intentions of the maker (2) the experiment as such; and (3) the input of language itself, influencing the shape of the overall result. It's a quantum field. The 'matching' style of game helps us to see vividly the broadly 'antiphonal' character of paragraphing in English; but when we both exemplify and comment on the orders of rhetoric which emerge, the quasi-logical system of Educaplay, with its binary opposites, is thrown into confusion. Instead, a fuzzy logic applies. Simultaneously, the teacher loses his ex cathedra stance and takes on the innocence of the Sorcerer's Apprentice, with his demanding buckets to be filled, or of Alexander Fleming, whose accidental negligence provides the key to future discovery. Three types of paragraph are laid bare, whose indicia may be used transformationally in other contexts.
