I begin teaching tomorrow and I'm not quite ready, but I will be! Meanwhile, here are some things I've been thinking about as I prepare my syllabi. Prof Hacker reminds those of us who teach that if we are complaining about students today being unteachable it probably means we're doing something wrong. And I agree; it's just as hard to teach well now as it ever was.
Do we as teachers want to sound like Mark Bauerlein, author of "The Dumbest Generation"?
Isn't that a little like Monty Python's "4 Yorkshiremen" routine? Here's a Spanish parody of "kids today!"
