Midterm over!

With much wailing and gnashing of teeth, the Internet and Business class students have submitted their papers. In a survey at the start of semester the students asserted that take-home exams were one of their most preferred forms of assessment. And yet some now blog that they "hate take-home exams." Despite having nine days to complete the paper, many students only started working on it the night before (I can see this on the wiki stats). And some students complain that they don't understand, but they do not ask questions, even though online help is available 12 hours a day. 

Still, I look forward to grading to see how people did. I learn a little every time.
