sorry to hear about the homework cheating in your class, deborah.
however, i'm glad to hear that you're assigning homework. my
students look at me like i have at least two heads when i give an
assignment. many don't bother to do it - even thought it counts
towards their grades - they'd rather moan later (and pretend it's my
fault). i wonder just how many plant-edders go through this extra,
but valuable, hassle, and how homework grades are worked in.
please respond.
