Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2005OT Bizarre
You know, I'm sitting here grading papers and I just find it bizarre when I run across a student who talks about the mosques and architecture around them. Often in class, we have students actively stationed in Iraq and I just have to marvel that technology allows them to take a class from me while also talking about the war around them. I just had to take a moment and express just this wierd bizarre feeling of displacement and amazement about this phenomenon. > You know, I'm sitting here grading papers and I just find it bizarre when I > run across a student who talks about the mosques and architecture around [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > express just this wierd bizarre feeling of displacement and amazement about > this phenomenon. What do you teach, Karen? I only recently became aware that you are a teacher. Are your classes totally online?

I teach integrated arts.

The world is a much, much smaller place than it was even twenty years ago! I've been waiting eagerly for an DVD to be released. It came out in Europe last Monday, but won't be released in the U.S. until April 12th, so since my DVD player will accept both PAL and NTSC formats, I ordered it on the web from MDT Classics in England. It arrived in my California mailbox last Friday! (That's less than a week in transit - I don't always get mail orders that fast from companies in the U.S.!) >> You know, I'm sitting here grading papers and I just find it bizarre >> when I run across a student who talks about the mosques and [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > transit - I don't always get mail orders that fast from > companies in the U.S.!) I buy DVDs from all over the world, often different films are released on DVD in one region before their theatrical release in another. I live in the UK and have had discs from Hong Kong and Australia only take two days to reach me.

Yep- I teach anthropology, and in my online classes I've had students who are stationed overseas with the military as well as a couple who live overseas in a civilian capacity. Pretty cool when you're discussing a culture area and have someone who happens to live there who can offer first hand perspective. Katrina
