Resolution

So, my students wrote their responses to the questions. What would they like more of, or what would help them in the class?

• They would like me to tell them what is going to be on the quiz before they do the reading.
• They would like me to tell them what parts of the readings to pay attention to.
• They would like less reading.

I think I am going to take doughnuts or muffins in to my other classes next week, just to thank them for . . . not being like this class.

Actually, to be honest, I like teaching students who are new at college--some groups just seem to have a harder time at realizing they're not in Kansas anymore.
