Make sure you emphasize this! Those kids'll eat you alive with their crappy sources, and if you don't tell them 50% of their work cited pages will have wikipeda all over them. <BR/><BR/>Also, if some of the papers are bad, remember, it's not because you're a bad teacher, it's because their bad students.Tonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06452770273139579992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7570298073511349932.post-39171706979784615732008-02-20T16:43:00.000-07:002008-02-20T16:43:00.000-07:00I say make run wind sprints and require that at le...I say make run wind sprints and require that at least 10 of the citations have to come from non-english sources and they also have to make a scientific discovery as part of the paper, you know like turning led into gold.

That'll teach 'em.<BR/><BR/>I don't know what to do about my class. I gave a quiz yesterday that involved drawing a couple of graphs. I asked them to correctly label the vertical and horizontal axes, and a few of the students actually wrote "horizontal" and "vertical" as the labels, instead of "input" and "output", which is all I wanted. The median score of this quiz is zero.aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14331910699086583768noreply@blogger.com
