I'm wondering would a teacher who is enthusiastic about requiring students
to drill at memorizing nonsense syllables result in students who want to
learn nonsense syllables?
Dewey,
I think you've made my point for me. The answer is certainly "yes". There
are numerous examples all around us, ranging from Rap to speaking in tounges.
In some circles it's called enthusiasm, in others chrisma, and may even pass
as salesmanship or leadership. Whatever it is called, it certainly works.
