@franco_vazza I was on the other side of that 20 odds years ago, bartending. At least your lesson is interesting enough to justify getting out of bed so early
@franco_vazza I have a big introductory course for first year students, that just came out of school. Some don’t pay any attention and I would approach them personally, make a comment and ask them a question or so, at least so they know I know.
@franco_vazza I was on the other side of that 40 years ago. Five of us had a quantum course that was always after lunch. The lecturer would stare over our heads, and lecture in a pretty solid monotone.
I was the only one who wrote the exam. I got 17% ...
@franco_vazza I am now a high school teacher. I ask lots of questions as we go along, and encourage them to be asked. In small groups that can work? That said, some classes are like teaching polony, others so engaged that I struggle to finish the syllabus. Might just be the group?
@franco_vazza The recordings are a real issue. School doesn't allow the skipping part, but I know at UCT, it's a thing.
My classes are also recorded, and getting told by parents about hearing my voice coming from their kids rooms is ... creepy!
