We were lucky to work with great volunteers who had severe acquired & congenital somatosensory impariments

Back when i was a professor, early on I used to get bad reviews occasionally. My institution was extremely critical of this. So, what did I discover was the easy solution? I watered down my course and made everything easier. Magically, I started to get near perfect evaluations in what was a symbiotic hustle. Teach an easy course, crack a few jokes during lecture, and give everyone an A --> good evaluations from students. And students evals are the only way teaching is judged. Of course, students learned much back in the days when I hassled them more with hard projects.

A legendary experiment on the moon, a hammer and feather dropped from the same height, reach the lunar surface simultaneously without air resistance. All objects fall at the same rate (regardless of mass) as predicted by Galileo, over 400 years earlier.
