“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.”

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi

Hey there. My name is Umit.

I created Elaboraet to write about and share my beliefs on education and philosophy under the Web log and Articles pages. I plan to turn the Web log, or blog, into a contiguous, generally unrefined stream of ideas or thoughts. It primarily is supposed to serve as a launchpad for compelling ideas or thoughts to become full articles.

The Articles page will become a comprehensive index of links to original articles I wrote, each of which will be on its own page with a comments section. This is only the ideal. Right now, it will be a short list of a few already-existing articles transcribed to WordPress, most of them written some time ago.

If I decide to keep going with this project, I envision that this website will grow mature over time and, ideally, garner an effective base of critical readers.
