Effective methods of student assessment

Hi Sunny- I could not agree with you more!! As the instructor, interacting on a daily basis with our students, we know how they are doing. Thus, as you point out, we need to balance any major exams with what we see daily. Best wishes- Susan

Getting student participation in questioning sessions

Hi Lisa- It's so importnat to call on students by their name. I guess that's one of the perks of teaching smaller classes. I can't imagine what it's like teaching in a huge 400+ student lecture hall! Best wishes - Susan
