Christine's response

After observing my class Chris wrote on my FaceBook wall:
"According to my calculations, 4 out of 30 students completed and corrected their worksheets. About 60% of the students brought writing utensils to class and an equal number talked through the entire lecture."
I agree with her assessment. The difference between teaching a class of all men is the equivalent of night & day to teaching a class of all women. I completely understand my colleagues who request only female sections. I am happy to teach both. The shabab are challenging, but as I explain in the next post I like a challenge.
