[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Professor’s spouse lady is not doing UMD any favor. Are you sure this is not your DH’s Dept only?[/quote]

My spouse has tenure, so I could really care less. And yes, I am sure that his department isn't the only one.

This isn't just happening at UMD. Not defending it, but doing some portions of classes online saves the university money by conserving energy and class space.

Examples outside of DH's department:

English 101 https://www.english.umd.edu/academics/academicwriting/BlendedLearning
Psych 100: https://app.testudo.umd.edu/soc/201801/PSYC/PSYC100
Health 301 https://sph.umd.edu/sites/default/files/files/BCH/BCH%20Syllabus%2017-18/DBCH_HLTH301_Fall2017_Slopen.pdf

Sigh lady.. hope your DH cares at least.[/quote]

It's not about not caring. My son prefers online classes because he can watch the lecture twice or stop and rewind if he misses a point being made.

Not everybody likes the lecture model of a professor. It's about providing the right education to all kids. [/quote]
