Reflection 7

Today, I was struck by the amount of potential that technology has in the classroom. Whilst I was in my least favorite class (British Literature II), the professor kept insisting on correct MLA format. He refused to take the papers from the class out of nowhere for little things. Rather than allowing us to make changes, then email it to him, he insisted that we correct (even if it was a very small thing) our mistakes before he would even accept. While I am all for accuracy and correctness, I believe that there is a better way to handle it than waste all that paper. i think that students should be able to use technology to email the papers to him so that he could check that corrections were made and then grade the paper. That would be environmentally friendly and less obnoxious. Just a thought. :)
