Today I went to the last class for the semester that I hadn't had yet because it only meets on Wednesday. I think it will be my favorite class. The professors is one of my favorites and I really enjoyed the class I took from him this past spring. Again there is lots of work to be done, but you can work in groups (although the project is lengthened depending on group size), so that helps a little.
I am so excited about the U101 class I teach. The kids are very enthused for the most part and we have some really exciting things planned. As I mentioned, a little more than half the class lives on the same floor in a dorm and is part of the Journalism Living-Learning Community. They have all gotten to know each other so well and it is exciting to see how much fun they are having. We have one kid who is a real jokester and in his journal wrote about an emotional text he got from dog and Bruce Willis coming in to kill a tyrannosaurus rex that was eating the dorm. Tomorrow they have to share time lines of their life, so we will see how creative they are! Check out what some of the Living-Learning students are up to at their blog.
On a random note, my research teacher keep using food references for example in class and then went on to talk about chocolate chip cookie recipes. This made me giggle remembering a cookbook our class made in 5th grade and Kenny submitted the recipe for chocolate chip cookies. It went as follows:
open the package
put the dough on the tray
bake
I don't think that's what they were looking for, but they included it anyway.
