Steve: Ok, class, this weekend I want you to do chapter one, problems 8-12, 15, 17, 19, 24, 30-40 and 42. Peter, you have a question? Jason: Couldn't you just e-mail us this, so we don't have to bother writing it all down? What was that, sir? Steve: Well, he certainly simplified things for you, Mr. Email. Peter: How am I supposed to do every problem in the book?!

I never really liked writing down all these seemingly arbitrary numbers, trying not to mess them up.

I liked one teacher I had. He never assigned homework but said your notebook would come in handy. Final comes around and he tells us to get our notebooks out. If you did the first 10 questions for each chapter you would ace the final as those where the final. You could tell the ones that had actually did the homework, they were done with the final in about 15 mins.

Homework, scowls and a detention pad do not a “good” teacher make. I know, I tried all three and settled on the better alternative – helping the kids to learn.

Use your e-mail program Peter, since you seem to think so much of it.

Peter can email the homework to him — copy a bunch of garbage code from somewhere, paste it in the email, and then claim the email got corrupted. Or I guess he’d have to get Jason to do it since Peter may not know how to copy/paste. Of course getting Jason to do it might be dangerous, considering he’d probably use real code and take over the teacher’s computer — which might not be a bad thing if he could use it to Peter’s advantage.

Agreed, really, math, science, English, or social studies – doing it yourself is key to learning. Or athletics for that matter.
