I teach two sections of oral communication. In these classes, almost any activity is fine, if it motivates students to talk and listen. Joe brought a few of his puppets along, and they've been a big hit. Here, Pearl the Pig, in a display of patriotism, wears an Uncle Sam hat. Don't know if you can see it, but the logo on Joe's shirt says "ETSU Pride."
I was a professor of curriculum and instruction at East Tennessee State University and am now in emeritus status. Currently, I teach English composition part-time at George Mason University. I have taught in Cincinnati, Turkey, China and the Czech Republic.
