Thursday, day 3 into a new semester

Computer Science class sizes have ballooned. We now have 3 sections of ICS4U with 32, 32, and 31 students. I guess we are doing a good job and students do talk. However, if you have ever taught CS then you know that anything over about 25 students is really difficult unless you really know the programming environment you are teaching with. I feel sorry for my teaching partner as he is just learning Adobe Flex and Actionscript 3.0. He seems quite flexible though so I hope he survives.

Other than that, not much happening as Shelley and I are just about over our jet lag. This Saturday I and 5 other teachers are providing workshops for 180 Malaysian high school teachers at Taylors Lakeside Campus. It could turn into anorganizational nightmare but hopefully not.

I will let you know how it went,

TTYL,

Jim
