I use this cartoon, which I
have described to my students as "a scary picture of me in a
lightning storm at midnight," to indicate to my classes the point
at which I begin to get impatient because nobody is posting
anything on the discussion board. (The postings are for
marks; the students also have to comment on the posts of others.
Many of them have got into the habit of not posting until the
last possible minute, meaning that many of our class discussions
take place very, very quickly.) |
