Student Like Me
Then again, a propos of the last post, perhaps the real insights come from methods from social anthropology. Here's an article about a University of Arizona professor who immersed herself in first year to find out what it was really like from the student's perspective.
``I'm trying to get really to what student culture is doing and tailor my teaching,'' said Dr. Cathy Small, who wrote a book on her research under the pseudonym Rebekah Nathan called ``My Freshman Year: What a Professor Learned by Becoming a Student.''
Interesting,
Stephen
