I used to enjoy the email asking me if I said anything important in a missed lecture. I usually responded by saying I never say anything important in the classroom. I'm only there to keep the students off the streets. My lectures were 80 minutes long. Sometimes I informed the student that since I type more slowly than I talk it would take quite some time to tell them what they missed via email. I'd invite them to my office for a private lecture. Nobody took me up on that one. I remain happily retired and derelict, Dave W. -- Living in the Ozarks For email, edu will do. Regardless of what doesn't happen, there's always someone who knew it wouldn't. R. Henry |

I'm going to pass the article and your comment to my husband, Dave. He had mail from a student a couple weeks ago where the student was, in essence, wanting Rob to do the homework problem for him.

I wish those recording things were easier to come by and use for the rest of us. I also find it discouraging to hear that newspapers won't run someone's words by them before printing them.

Didn't sound like Meg. She was a student too recently to do this. I think Email is great. It is just a tool, though, and isn't different from anything before. I've taught classes at this level, and it really doesn't matter whether it is office hours or Email. -- Dan Abel Petaluma, California, USA |
