    It’s a great quote. I don’t see why you couldn’t build stuff like that into what we’re doing. It’d make for a nice way to augment/focus the syllabus. I feel like the fact that you want that experience for students ought to come out in your intro video.

    I also wonder what was it about that research assignment that made the shift for the student (and was it a widely shared shift) and how that impacts what your other assignments look like.

      Yup, I’m planning to use it in the syllabus I’m developing for homework. It’s actually a pretty common outcome, because I work so hard to make the subject relevant and to explain the real-world benefits of the stuff we work on. Reflective letters are rich with comments like this, it’s just time consuming to pluck them out, format them, etc. Glad this class is making that opportunity…unavoidable. 🙂

    Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this blog.
    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and appearance.
    I must say you’ve done a superb job with this.

    Additionally, the blog loads super quick for me on Firefox.
    Excellent Blog!
