ReplyDeleteI thought you'd catch that...
ReplyDeleteI just missed him. He put together my curriculum. I was disappointed that I was unable to take some courses from him.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I really like about the ITI is that the authors of the great texts are the true instructors; not that the professor has no role. Their job is to facilitate the understanding of the Masters and Doctors. They are using the same pedagogical style at WCC.
