Application of learning


It's good to know the things we teach in the classroom are not only understood in terms of lesson material but useful in the everyday lives of our students. I've introduced Twitter in class this summer, and it's been fun watching the Tweets roll by.

My favorite student Tweet from last night: "Now I know how to use pathos n logos to get to date many hotties."

Ha ha ha

I have created a monster!

  1. It's not a monster Ms Scarlett,it's a winner.It's even cheaper,more effective and even more ethical(this is where ethos come in) than synthetic pheromones.

  2. I am so glad to see your critical thinking skills hard at work here, Mike. I'm particularly fascinated by your idea that pursuit of "hotties" (plural) relates to ethics. *grin*
