Homework

One of life's most painful moments comes when we must admit that we didn't do our homework, that we are not prepared.

Wayne: Homework is boring.  True story.

Me: Grading is fun.  Entering grades into computer systems is boring.

 

What if we didn't call it homework, but lifework?  Would we make different kinds of assignments?  Would we engage in the assignments in different ways?  Would it raise the stakes.

 

And what if we didn't call it grading, but judging.

 

Wait.  I already do that.
