The syllabus <i>must<\/i> be ready one<br \/>\nweek in advance of the semester (i.e., today) so that our plans and projections<br \/>\ncan be vetted, held up alongside what&#8217;s acceptable. And once the syllabus<br \/>\nis vetted and approved, TAs are awarded their precious copy codes. That said,<br \/>\nI&#8217;m teaching an online section this semester, and so it&#8217;s entirely possible that<br \/>\nI won&#8217;t make a single photocopy over the next sixteen weeks. It&#8217;s a<br \/>\nsection of <i>Studio II<\/i>, the second course in SU&#8217;s two-course composition<br \/>\nsequence, a course normally taken during the second semester of the sophomore<br \/>\nyear. But the section I&#8217;ve been appointed is designated for &quot;seniors<br \/>\nonly,&quot; which means that there will be ten or so seniors enrolled who will<br \/>\ngraduate in May and who have yet to take WRT205 for any number of reasons.<br \/>\nRather than explain my plan here, feel free to check out the<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/wrt.syr.edu\/~dmueller\/teaching\/wrt205spring07\/index.html\"><br \/>\nsyllabus<\/a> if you&#8217;re so inclined. You should be warned that the front<br \/>\npiece looks like garbage in IE, but I&#8217;ve checked it for CSS compliance and it&#8217;s<br \/>\nlooks dandy in Firefox, Netscape, and Safari&#8211;just like I want it to look. And<br \/>\nyeah, I have been futzing with style sheets just for kicks in the last day or<br \/>\nso.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I still have a fair amount of work to do for the course in the days ahead,<br \/>\nbut I&#8217;m confident that what&#8217;s there will go off without a hitch. Holding<br \/>\nface-to-face conferences is, as my reviewer pointed out to me, a wildcard, but<br \/>\nas I imagine it, it will be significant to meet once at the library for everyone<br \/>\nwho is relatively near to campus. Even in such cases where it&#8217;s impossible to<br \/>\nmeet, we can use Skype or telephone to chat about the first project and what&#8217;s<br \/>\nto follow. <\/p>\n<p>I never said much about it, but the course I taught in the fall, WRT302,<br \/>\nimproved markedly down the stretch. In fact, on the final day, one day before I<br \/>\nsat my major exams, everyone wanted to stay and spend time with each others&#8217;<br \/>\nfinal projects. I mean that I said we could end a few minutes early since<br \/>\neveryone&#8217;s stuff was turned in, and they asked if they could look at the<br \/>\nculminating projects on the big screen. So we stayed until the last minute<br \/>\nof class, watching together the impressive work they&#8217;d composed. I&#8217;m reminded of<br \/>\nthis as I head into the new semester because, along with getting the syllabus<br \/>\nready for the upcoming 205, I&#8217;ve been arranging some of my<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/wrt.syr.edu\/~dmueller\/teaching\/index.html\">teaching materials<\/a><br \/>\nand getting a few more pieces, like<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/wrt.syr.edu\/~dmueller\/teaching\/evaluations\/wrt302evals.html\">teaching evaluations<\/a>, online. I have<br \/>\nmixed feelings about sharing the evals because, read apart from the course, the<br \/>\ncommentary they offer&#8211;<i>good<\/i> and bad&#8211;is inevitably vague and ambiguous.<br \/>\nYet, to spend much time explicitly rationalizing specific comments seems<br \/>\nexcessive (even when I&#8217;ve done this quietly, privately). I learned: <i>This<\/i><br \/>\nstudent liked an group work; <i>that<\/i> one preferred to work alone. <i><br \/>\nOne<\/i> student thought Barthes was the highlight; <i>another<\/i>, DJ Spooky.<br \/>\nEvaluations are useful only insomuch as they are understood as the average<br \/>\neffect, the <i>studium<\/i> of pedagogy. What more be said about the evals is<br \/>\nthat they tell me this: rarely do I have a set of students who end the semester<br \/>\nof a like mind. That is, if the purpose of mass education is to replicate<br \/>\nideas&#8211;to grind the burrs from the automatons, something&#8217;s gone wonderfully<br \/>\nwrong. Anyway, I&#8217;ve been putting teaching evaluations up, too, and thinking<br \/>\nabout the limits of what that might mean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">\u23f3 Approximate reading time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">mins<\/span><\/span>Classes begin one week from today, and so I&#8217;ve been wrenching and soldering the course I&#8217;m slotted to teach.
