How many times have you heard it? This year alone I’m sure you’ve heard it even more often than you have in previous semesters (although it may also be for more significant reasons that it has previously)…
Your student, for whatever reason, is missing (has already missed) class and asks you the dreaded: Did I miss anything important?
What on earth do they expect you to respond with? So I ask you:
Have you seen… this poem by Tom Wayman entitled “Did I Miss Anything?”
I appreciated the play in his perspectives and responses. (He also wrote an FAQ to go along with the poem…)
What about you? What answers would you like to respond to the student with?
