  • Weird, that *is* a good idea

    Background: I teach writing to college freshmen online. Nearly all of my students are adult-adults (25+). /BG

    I just started a new class last week. As I always do, I include a variety of "helpful hints/tips/posts/info" posts throughout the classroom. I try to space them out, posting just two or three a day, so as not to overwhelm the students. I do my best to limit the posts to genuinely helpful information.

    Twice now, I've had students come to me with problems. Upon hearing my solution, they exclaimed "Wow, that's a great idea, I never thought of that!"

    Weird, those solutions were already posted in the classroom.

    A reminder to read everything I post was, of course, not answered by either student.....

    See how long it takes them to realize they've been posted as the poster children for "You Read It Here!".
