On "Appreciation"

24 January 2019: "As instructors immersed in our fields, it’s easy to take appreciation for granted. We wouldn’t be doing what we do if we didn’t appreciate it on a marrow-deep level. I know I’ve been mystified as to why students aren’t as awed as I am by a subject I’ve presented."

Really enjoyed this piece from insidehighered.com today. I often say that ENGL 204 is my favorite class to teach. I think that's because I make appreciation one of the main goals. It works!
