The challenge is how are we keeping track of these minor and major ‘academic accidents’ and how quickly can we react to mitigate the danger. While I would never advocate for simply removing academic challenges, it is important to reflect on whether we are requiring students to travel down a dark alley, where they are blind to the oncoming dangers, we have created, or should we install a stop sign that requires them to carefully look both ways and thoughtfully consider when and how to proceed.
Each time I approach these stops signs I now find myself reflecting on how can we determine where and when a stops sign may be needed.
I am definitely enjoying your website. You definitely have some great insight and great stories. http://www.peggybolcoa.com/
