bearshortySo my voice survived the four hours of lecturing and class time. I did end the three hour class a little early because my voice was going but I covered all the material I wanted. We were talked about ancient Israelites and early Christianity today and how they influenced the gender relations of Western Europe. I also gave a Map quiz and explained citations to them. I think the most effective method is physically showing them a Word document on the projector screen and pointing to where they need to click to get to footnotes and then writing out a footnote together.
I also wrote up my lecture notes with Powerpoint in the morning and graded their Response Papers. Response papers for both classes are a really good idea to see how they read and to make sure they read, even though it is three hours of extra work for me per week for both classes. Really worth it, though.
“House”. I used to watch it with my full attention but I today I pretty much had it in the background while grading Map Quizzes. I only stopped when Chase got stabbed since that was very dramatic. I figured out the House blamed himself long before House actually apologized to Chase – which is a big step for him.
A student managed to get 24 on her Map Quiz - she got all the terms beforehand and had a week to prepare. HeadDesk. She didn’t know Florence, Jerusalem or Mediterranean Sea.
