Angry Prof

 

I've been using YouTube for my DE classes and it is working really well for my needs.

This is an interesting video, in part because of the overwhelming support the Prof gets in the comments: it seems many students are as sick as we are of rude cell phone behvaior in classes (truth to tell, I haven't had but one incident in my 3 years here) 

Plagiarism Strategies

Let's share ideas for deterring and detecting plagiarism here.

And again, you will be able to create new entries like this one (as opposed to just replying to mine) by signing in to Tripod. I made the Blog public so we can all post entries.

You TOO can make your own posts--you have to sign in to Tripod first

Hi All -- If you want to be able to create new posts (instead of just replying to these I put up), spellcheck, and mess around with formatting, sign up for free membership, via tripod.com. This blog will remain Ad-free because I pay 5 bucks a month for my webpages, but you pay nothing. I've also not been deluged with spam from Tripod.

It might make it easier to navigate as well.

Hello Fellow Distance Ed Professors!

Here's our new Blog -- we are all authors -- so post away.
If/when we want to close it to the public (not likely to be an issue, since we're not doing anything untoward) we'll have to have each of you sign up for tripod (easy and free).
