Now the students say I am the smartest professor ever. Really I just cobbled that class together. First, I got some teaching strategies from The Compleat Academic and Arnulfo Ramírez, and a course concept and some materials from myself and Tulane University. Then, I got some more grist for the course concept from Momo, and some more materials from the Spanish Professor and Carlos Alonso. Next I added further ingredients from myself. Then I gave the class and the students feel it was incredibly intelligent although as I say, it was just a bricolage, a paste-up.
In the summer I have graduate students working on Afro-Hispanic literature and I am doing this for free, or so as to give myself a sense of structure. I the fall I have another class similar to the one wherein I was the smartes professor ever, and two sections of Spanish 3. We decided the final examination will involve an excursion to La Morenita, the Mexican grocery. I will have to remember this and refine the plans for the project, and the instructions.
I am thinking of taking the June 10 LSAT as a form of mental yoga. It will cost over $200 to do this but it is good to have a current score, in case one needs it, and I think getting into exam mode would be a good way of getting in shape generally. I realize how unusual the idea of preparing for and taking an examination like that as a form of relaxation is, yes. I am also thinking of getting a summer job tending bar, like the students.
Axé.
