21-2=fun

My evaluation professor started off class in quite a different manner than my other profs today. Being in PSII I know that the ‘coddling’ phase is over and expected, as most of my profs did, material right away. However, my evaluation professor spent 2 hours of a 21hour course on introductions alone! Now I think I learned a valuable lesson from this time. I had fun, and now having had fun, I have a good ‘aftertaste’ for this class. And now that the 21hours of work left to be done will have to be compressed into 19 hours, I know that I will work harder for her on a subconscious level. This is one of the things that I will note for my future teaching experiences… teach the students, not the content.
