Creating Personal Support Systems

Hi Al,
Don't have an answer to the situation you describe, though I experience it every time I start a new class. The sad part is that I teach some doctoral level courses and find that some of my students are lacking in basic writing and reading skills. There need to be an increased emphasis on the basic skills of written and oral communication as students are moving through the middle and high school levels. Probably not going to happen so we have to set up tutorial opportunities for students to acquire such skills as adults.
