In my history class, we did the discussion of Marco Polo today. I really don’t understand students, whose parents are paying $30,000 per year for their education, who come to class, knowing there is a discussion on the book which they need to read carefully for their next paper and where participation counts in their grade, and they don’t even have the book with them, never mind reading it. But enough people were prepared for discussion to work.
