Re: Less to grade!
Posted by rw on 3/21/09
I sure would. I teach writing. Only having to grade 2
student's essays instead of 15-30 for the same exact amount of
money... what is there to say no about?
It could be a difficult class to teach though. I mean, imagine
if 1 student dropped-- or both! Or one or both were out
sick... I would want to be ensured I'd get paid anyway.
