I have not read it, though, so I can't truly judge the book yet. I wasn't terribly surprised by the reaction to Ender, but it's always a bit saddening when students don't find one of my favorite books as awesome as I find it. I will have to look at the Percy Jackson books again--most of my students have little to no knowledge of mythology and the class doesn't have enough time to build in mini-mythology lessons, so that might be tough. I also recall the books being a bit younger even than the Hunger Games trilogy, but it's been a few years since I cracked one. I know that a number of my students have expressed their intent to go see Ender's Game when the film releases, and I'm sure that would have made a difference--oh well.

Popular culture definitely plays a part in what they are interested in in a classroom situation. I think the class will be more interested in Ender's Game when the film comes out. Have you thought about any other recent releases? The Host (the book) is amazing, though the movie left quite a bit to be desired. The Percy Jackson series is a lot of fun. Even though the characters are younger, the addition of mythology raises the difficulty of the texts.

Her response? That it wasn't a big deal. I'm sorry, but to me it was! When I specifically told them right before the quiz that there is no cheating, and then they cheat, I have an issue with that. I agree, we have created a society where students feel that cheating is not a big deal. However, we should fight against it anytime we can, not make it worse!

In children you learn by suffering consequences and being challenged, yet encouraged by your parents. The consequences and challenges have a bigger impact as adults.<br />I gave my first test in my freshman nsg class this week. 4 people passed it (out of 25). The range of grades is 34-79. Quite disappointing. I thought to myself, "Is it me? Is my test too hard? Did I not teach well enough?"<br />I haven't been using PowerPoint this semester. I've been using more active learning strategies, which got me thinking, "Should I go back to PowerPoint?" But its SO freaking boring and... done. I just can't rely on it, soley. <br />After looking at the test again, I've decided I was fair. (I used a VERY similar test last year and had better results.) Ultimately I think this is a learning experience and a wake-up call for some of my girls. A high standard must be held when it comes to the ones who are responsible for people's lives! The consequence I hold in my power is not letting this sort of behavior get into today's nursing workforce! <br />ASA Schweizerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00960075885732000803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3831684281951839240.post-76180064173929719602012-02-03T04:39:13.612-08:002012-02-03T04:39:13.612-08:00Great blog!!!
