Students or Consumers?
Hi again. Some of you might be interested in this Carnegie perspectives article about the efforts and attitudes of today's students. It's ostensibly about higher education (and the article is connected with the PBS show "Declining by Degrees," which sounds wonderful and which, I believe, is being broadcast on our PBS affiliate this evening), but it appears to be relevant for all of us. The article discusses student investment (or lack of investment, rather) in their educations and the sense that grades are based on persistence rather than achievement. And it continues the conversations we've had in recent days about grading, evaluation, etc.

Good afternoon Eric, I find it very refreshing to occasionally find a comment or topic such as yours with a unusual theme completely. My wife liked it too.
I must admit I tend to have a soft spot for sites related to article marketing and /or sites that have a central theme around article marketing type items. Probably the webmaster in me.
Once again, thank you Eric, and I hope you don't mind if I visit again sometime :-)
Good Afternoon ##NAME#. Quite by accident I stumbled accross your post on Students or Consumers?. Refreshing comments like yours seem to somehow add to ones list of lifes experiences.
I find that blogs related to that have a topic around type items to be informative and sometimes entertaining.
Once again, thank you Eric.
What up Eric , great post on title Webdevelopment . I have a similiar site on Webdevelopment , may we could trade link. If we don't have your Webdevelopment listed we will add it to our directory.
Good Morning Eric, I find reading blog articles like Students or Consumers? most rewarding at times. It enhances the experiences of life in many cases.
Being a physician, amongst other things I often have a soft spot for blogs related to publishing articles and /or sites that are built around publishing articles type items.
Once again, thank you Eric, and I will look for your posts again in the future. :-)
