Do you dread "grading" your
students papers? If you do, you might want to try being a "reader"
instead. Check out "Responding to Student Writing"

Do you find yourself writing the same
comments on most of your students" papers? Try handing out
copies of a well-thought out comment to the whole class. See
below for examples.
