Super Talking

19 Nov 2009 09:39 PM

My son is now a "super talker." This is the term I use to describe the wonderful, varied, and meandering stream of pitches and vowel sounds he is able to create with his beautiful mouth that can also control a smile.

One of the Joys of Teaching

19 Nov 2009 09:31 PM

I'm teaching a 400+ student introductory course in film this semester and because of that I don't get to personally meet many of my students. I lecture, show a film, and let my teaching assistants do the grading for this managerial nightmare.

The Joys Falling Leaves

17 Nov 2009 10:26 PM

When I was a kid (it sounds so weird to say that because I still feel like one) I lived in Iowa. Iowa, luckily, experiences the full force of each of the four seasons. Summer is hot and winter is cold.

Writing and the Dangers of Procrastination

10 Nov 2009 12:44 PM

Earlier in the semester I was a substitute for one of my wife's high school classes while she was spending time with our newborn son. My wife requires the students write a final research paper by the semester's end so part of my job was to get them thinking about a suitable topic to write about.

The Problem of Time

This will come as no surprise to most of you but time is finite. There aren't eight days in any week (even if The Beatles "imagine" there are) and there are only so many hours in each day. "Okay," you say, "I get it.

Is College a Must?
