| Jun 8, 2010 at 2:19 | comment | added | Victor Protsak | In real life, there is are viable alternative explanations for students missing a class: some of them are slackers, or later risers, or learn best on their own. I also think that lecture/classwork on the one hand and individual reading/homework on the other hand should complement each other, so the dichotomy between which of them is more useful is a false one. For sure, a teacher should be inspiring, but optimizing the amount of time spent studying isn't a professor's job. | |
