I was also surprised recently to learn that an acquaintance with a Ph.D. in Chem. Eng. was teaching JUCO chemistry fulltime, and her undergrad degree was Physics. I imagine your students will benefit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36194190.post-40741256667253373752015-08-14T11:52:39.948-05:002015-08-14T11:52:39.948-05:00Congrats on the position!

I've been collecting a lifetime of stories and learnings in anticipation of this day, and even based on one-on-one-discussions that I've had with student technicians/interns/tech-aides/call-them-what-you-will working for me, I think I will do fine.<br /><br />But I know full well that the teacher is graded by the test as well as the students (i.e., you see how much/little they actually learned from your magnificent lectures).<br /><br />@JR<br /><br />Yes, I wrote my Dr. May memorial post while this position was being under review and he was heavily on my mind. It's not the first time that I've had a double meaning in my posts. This is however, the first time it's been called out. Congratulations!<br /><br />Feeling like hot stuff? See if you can tell me where my son works. However, you are restricted to just searching my blog. The clues are out there, as much as in the DeVinci Code. And of course, you need to show your work.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04412324900423436763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36194190.post-14288779098728103232015-08-13T14:25:11.833-05:002015-08-13T14:25:11.833-05:00Thank goodness, now you can make the course materi...Thank goodness, now you can make the course material "come to life" like professor May did.JRnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36194190.post-53189966517219467302015-08-13T12:10:28.183-05:002015-08-13T12:10:28.183-05:00Hurrah!
