week seven and eight
it is officially spring break. finally. i plan to sleep for nine days straight.
well, not quite…but i wish.
students are definitely getting to that whole grade-freak-out. ie they are getting on my nerves.
had a few students not turn in their essays. had a few students not show up to their midterms. this whole throwing away large chunks of a grade still baffles, and, yes, surprises me.
had a student show up to the exam this morning – one that has been my smart alec all semester long – who saw “there should be nothing on your desk” written across the board (the exam is online), took out a pen, and slammed it down (if you can slam down a pen) onto the desk top. then he turned and looked at me defiantly. really?
