Too many topics, too little time

Having winter fun like snowbody’s business.:
The problem is that in my discipline students often expect the coursework to be easy, the content be ‘common sense,’ particularly in the lower level classes. I always get a lot of students who take this sort of class their senior year hoping it will be an easy filler only to realize they’ve made a serious mistake.

i generally get the same thing “its theory, it is just common sense”. good luck with that….. students need to ‘learn’ and they need to be graded’ on that learning….
