Thoughts that deserve time to digest, integrate and mature into changes (소화하고 통합하며 변화로 성숙해질 시간이 필요한 생각들)
Or just a way to browse and stretch the thinking muscles (혹은 그저 사고의 근육을 훑어보고 스트레칭하는 방법)
You did everything right but …. (당신은 모든 것을 올바르게 했지만…) by Kay Laurence
"But it still hasn’t worked out, even after 6 years?" — (6년이 지났는데도 여전히 해결되지 않았나요?)
"Yeah, it can be disappointing, but at times even the “perfect” protocol, applied with accuracy can undo itself and we go around in the circle again." — (그래요, 실망스러울 수 있지만, 때로는 정확하게 적용된 '완벽한' protocol(프로토콜)조차 스스로를 무효화할 수 있으며 우리는 다시 제자리걸음을 하게 됩니다.)
Learning is not for spectators (학습은 관람자를 위한 것이 아니다) by Kay Laurence
Are you an Active Learner? (당신은 능동적인 학습자인가요?)
Or: Are you getting your money’s worth for online courses? (아니면, 온라인 코스에 투자한 만큼의 가치를 얻고 있나요?)
It would not matter what subject we are talking about: cooking, shopping, playing golf or training your dog if you are not working at getting better then you are getting worse (요리, 쇼핑, 골프, 반려견 훈련 등 어떤 주제를 다루든 상관없습니다. 더 나아지기 위해 노력하지 않는다면, 당신은 퇴보하고 있는 것입니다.)
Ear Myths (귀에 관한 미신) by Frances McCormack
There is a myth surrounding Border Collies that ear shape, coat colour or texture, and even eye colour are indicators of that dog’s personality, temperament, or behaviour (보더콜리에 관해 귀 모양, 털 색깔이나 질감, 심지어 눈 색깔이 그 개의 성격, 기질, 행동을 나타내는 지표라는 미신이 있습니다.)
"for example, it might be said that a long-coated red dog is sensitive; a dog with pricked ears..." — (예를 들어, 긴 털을 가진 붉은 색 개는 예민하다거나, 귀가 쫑긋 서 있는 개는 어떻다거나 하는 식의 주장들입니다.)
Living well through movement (움직임을 통해 잘 사는 법) by Kay Laurence
"The purpose of learning is to get more or better rewards" (W. Shultz) — (W. 슐츠: "학습의 목적은 더 많거나 더 나은 보상을 얻는 것이다.")
Can we assume that the more we learn the more rewards we can enjoy? (우리가 더 많이 배울수록 더 많은 보상을 즐길 수 있다고 가정할 수 있을까요?)
Often these are not directly obvious (종종 이러한 보상은 직접적으로 드러나지 않습니다.)
When we learn and extend our mobility: dancing or mountain climbing, this impacts directly on... (춤이나 암벽 등반처럼 우리의 이동성을 배우고 확장할 때, 이는 직접적으로 ~에 영향을 미칩니다.)
The Need to Correct an Error (오류를 수정해야 할 필요성) by Kay Laurence
When learning is littered with costly mistakes we will carry anxiety and avoidance (학습 과정에 값비싼 실수들이 가득하면 우리는 불안과 회피를 가지게 됩니다.)
Errors are feedback (오류는 피드백입니다.)
There should be no fear of error just opportunities to learn (실수를 두려워해서는 안 되며, 오직 학습의 기회로 여겨야 합니다.)
What Words Conceal (단어가 감추는 것) by Frances McCormack
The language across all kinds of media paints a picture of dogs and our relationships with them (모든 종류의 미디어에 걸쳐 사용되는 언어는 개와 그들과의 관계에 대한 이미지를 그려냅니다.)
Do We Want Impulse Control? (우리는 Impulse Control을 원하는가?) by Frances McCormack
Teaching your Collie “impulse control” is the wrong way of thinking about their urges, and certainly an unhelpful way of dealing with them (콜리에게 “impulse control(충동 조절)”을 가르치는 것은 그들의 욕구에 대해 잘못 생각하는 방식이며, 확실히 그들을 다루는 데 도움이 되지 않는 방법입니다.)
Collies : Masters at Laser Focus (콜리: 레이저 같은 집중력의 달인) by Kay Laurence
When we ask the dog to Be Collie and use all their inherited instincts, part of that package is the exclusion of stimulus irrelevant to that intense predatory focus (우리가 개에게 'Be Collie(콜리답게 행동하라)'라고 요구하며 그들이 물려받은 본능을 모두 사용하게 할 때, 그 패키지의 일부는 강렬한 predatory sequence(포식 행동 순서)에 관련 없는 자극을 배제하는 것입니다.)
It’s Not Training (이것은 훈련이 아니다)
A carefully planned learning pathway, paced to suit that particular learner for their life ahead (앞으로의 삶을 위해 그 특정 학습자에게 맞게 속도가 조절된, 세심하게 계획된 학습 경로입니다.)
Ethos: A Personal Trust (에토스: 개인적인 신뢰)
Pilot Experience changes our ethos (경험은 우리의 에토스(윤리적 특성)를 변화시킵니다.)
There are many pathways that will broaden our choices (우리의 선택의 폭을 넓혀줄 많은 경로가 존재합니다.)
Normal is always changing (정상은 항상 변한다)
What was normal in training 20 or 40 years ago is not the same today (20년이나 40년 전 훈련에서 정상이었던 것은 오늘날과 같지 않습니다.)
There are folk persistently maintaining the normal of 1976, but fortunately there are enough folk with a deeper understanding of the processes that have moved normal forwards (1976년의 정상을 고집하는 사람들이 있지만, 다행히도 정상을 앞으로 나아가게 하는 과정에 대해 더 깊이 이해하는 사람들이 충분히 많습니다.)
Guidance is not dependence (지도는 의존이 아니다)
Guidance can be the lightest change in contingencies, an extra antecedent (지도는 우연적 상황에서의 가장 가벼운 변화이자, 추가적인 antecedent(선행 조건)일 수 있습니다.)
I can place a palette of different paints and brushes next to the chair (나는 의자 옆에 다양한 물감과 붓이 담긴 팔레트를 놓아줄 수 있습니다.)
도구의 존재와 안내 (Presence of Tools)
"It doesn’t mean you need to paint the chair, you could sit on the chair and paint your own shoes, but just the presence of the tools would give you guidance." (의자를 꼭 칠해야 하는 것은 아니며, 의자에 앉아 자신의 신발을 칠할 수도 있다. 하지만 도구가 그 자리에 존재하는 것만으로도 행동에 대한 안내를 받을 수 있다.)
The Fade-in Protocol (페이드인 프로토콜)
현대에는 positive reinforcement (정적 강화)를 활용한 교수법이 많지만, 여전히 반려견이 error (실수)를 하도록 상황을 유도해야 한다는 고정관념이 존재함.
error (실수)란 단순히 보호자의 expectation (기대)과 반려견의 response (반응) 사이의 차이일 뿐임.
더 이상의 distractions (방해 요소)는 배제하고, faded-in environments (환경을 서서히 도입하는 방식)를 활용해야 함.
What is a Trainer? (트레이너란 무엇인가?)
저자 자신은 스스로를 trainer (트레이너)로 정의하지만, 독자가 생각하는 A Trainer의 관점과 일치하거나 겹치는지에 대한 의문 제기.
Ethos: A Personal Trust (에토스: 개인적 신뢰)
Experience (경험)는 우리의 ethos (에토스/기질)를 변화시킴.
우리의 선택지를 넓혀줄 다양한 pathways (경로)가 존재함.
Do We Want Impulse Control? (우리는 충동 조절을 원하는가?)
Collie (콜리)에게 impulse control (충동 조절)을 가르치는 것은 그들의 urges (본능적 욕구)를 바라보는 잘못된 방식이며, 이를 다루는 데 있어 전혀 도움이 되지 않음.
A View to a Kill? (사냥을 향한 시선?)
Border Collie (보더 콜리)가 양을 상대로 predatory behaviour (포식 행동)를 보인다는 주장을 흔히 접함.
그러나 그들이 실제로 kill (살상)을 목표로 하는지에 대해서는 의문을 제기함.
Chasm opening up? (벌어지는 간극)
sit, down, come, stay, heel을 essential basics (필수 기초)로 간주할수록, 저자의 반려견과 함께 사는 것에 대한 일반적인 관점과는 멀어지고 있음.
What Words Conceal (단어들이 숨기고 있는 것)
모든 종류의 미디어에서 사용하는 언어들은 반려견과 우리의 관계에 대한 특정 이미지를 형성함.
The Need to Correct an Error (실수를 교정해야 할 필요성)
학습 과정에 costly mistakes (값비싼 대가를 치르는 실수)가 가득하면 anxiety (불안)와 avoidance (회피)가 발생함.
Errors (실수)는 feedback (피드백)에 불과함.
실수를 두려워할 필요 없이, 오직 배울 기회로 삼아야 함.

The Fade-in Protocol
Even though today we are surrounded by many available protocols for teaching with positive reinforcement, there is still a persistence that a dog should be set-up to make an error. An error is simply the difference between my expectation and the dog’s response. No more “distractions”, but faded-in environments.
