      Slide advances are SO valuable and seem to walk off on their own sometimes (personal experience).

    • My most essential teaching tool is compassion.
    • The one thing I always forget to bring to my 8 a.m. class is my water.
    • I know it’s the middle of the semester when I see my students ask for extensions on requirements. Things start to slide a little.

      Hi Nancy,

      Hope all is well. I agree that students become a bit more complacent around midterm. Your example, and those of other colleagues, seems to demonstrate so. I find myself referring them to the syllabus, to which they might answer “what syllabus?”.

    • “My most essential teaching tool is my laptop.”
    • “The one thing I always forget to bring to my 8 a.m. class is my ability to see the students sitting in front of the window with the sun shining brightly behind them……”
    • “I know it’s the middle of the semester when I see my students getting ready to register for the next semester.”
