@dowellml I think you need to grade participation, not attendance. My understanding when teaching in Chicago was that attendance was required to fulfill reporting for Pell grants for students (something like that). So we had to have attendance records, but we didn’t tie them to grades

We have to stop grading class attendance. That’s no part of a just world, and I don’t care about your argument about “preparing” students for the workplace, which is flawed in so many ways.

@FanaticsSupport My order has not arrived. The tracking shows it has sat in a local delivery warehouse for 10 days without a delivery being attempted. There is no way to contact the Canadian site to talk to a person in English and the virtual assistant is useless.

@DarrochHeidi I don’t think there were too many “divorces” in Canadian programs: Waterloo has kept it unified, Western’s writing program has been re-absorbed into English; but Winnipeg’s has always been separate; U of T’s and York’s were never part of English.

@DarrochHeidi No, but the history of this seemed to be tied to the way speech communication programs in the US did not cross the border and instead became more mass communication focused. About the 1980s and 1990s
