Diana,
Thanks for your input. I like your saying "You are one click away from spell check." But, as you know - that doesn't catch everything. ;-)
Even if you feel you should have done something in the past, you can learn from the present. You can also pass the information about taking a refresher course on toyour students. They may feel the same way.
And, as you noted in your last sentence. . .being prepared to communicate is essential.
Thanks again.
