Hey pubski, I'm sipping a Bailey's on ice and watching the CBC news on TV w/ my houseguests. Like galen "homework" is taking a long time. I have 40 students in one of my classes. They just handed in amazing one-page essays. 40. What's time consuming is figuring out how to respond to their content with positive comments and mention some of the style issues in a way that will motivate them rather than drive them away. I send them all personal emails in response to their assignments. Sometimes my email is longer than their essays. -- I have to stop that.
Lil, you're the illest. That's amazing. What grade do you teach, if you don't mind me asking?I send them all personal emails in response to their assignments. Sometimes my email is longer than their essays.
