This week I found myself out of commission for 3 straight days as I battled a fever. While fever is just a symptom I hear, I couldn’t figure out what the real problem was. I had no other conditions to speak of!
I did let Prof. B know ahead of time and fortunately it wasn’t until the following week that I needed to be there to lead out. I followed up later in the week to hear about how class went. It sounded like the typical showing with some students still not grasping concepts, others not being driven to complete the work—and others producing great projects.
My discussion with Prof. B set the expectations for what he wanted to be addressed in the class. The students have been assigned a min. 10 page brochure. I will discuss with them direction behind visuals and bindery. The assignment I will give them will be a folded comp for the following class. In addition students have already been asked to bring folded samples into class and I will need to give guidance and direction on the fly with respect to what they bring.
