Professional Experience and Personal Reflections by Lisa Bowstead, Founder The Importance of Precision Hands December 20, 2013 Last year, Huffington Post featured my friend and mentor, Jim Murphy's series of articles in which he refelcts on his insights and experiences with the connections between kids using their hands to manipulate strings and their ability to excel as students.
It is truly wonderful how so many otherwise overlooked public school students have learned to think analytically and critically as a result of exploring string figures with Murphy!
