Today my wife had an all-day meeting for the Social Studies honors program that she's teaching this year. It was a teacher inservice. They were working on developing curriculum for a part of the class where they teach kids about how different systems. The idea is to teach kids about how different inputs are combined, acted upon by a system and result in a desired effect and additional outputs.
The person giving the inservice had this group of 25 Social Studies teachers the example of an automibile engine. She asked about inputs, processes and outputs.
My amazing wife raised her hand and when called upon, described the entire function of a 4 cycle, internal combustion engine. The person giving the inservice was skeptical and asked her specific questions, thinking that she didn't know her stuff. Laura answered all of the questions in detail.
At first many people asked her how she knew that. She said her husband was a car freak and that it just rubbed off on her. The whole group then got a good laugh out of that.
I'm so proud. My wife is a freak. ;)
