And if I want to write comments on their answers, as I often do, it's much easier for me to type the comment on the document than to handwrite it on paper, and they'll find it easier to read, as well.Lewis Pulsipherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11998403221823705918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30766504.post-62299587682963008172007-05-01T12:28:00.000-04:002007-05-01T12:28:00.000-04:00After years of playing video games, and now typing...After years of playing video games, and now typing since taking your classes, my hands just don't have the musculature necessary anymore to hold a pencil.<BR/><BR/>As for the test, I was very surprised. It was easier than I expected, but with all the material we had covered, it should come as no surprise that some of us may have been over-exaggerating the difficulty of the material.<BR/><BR/>While being easier than expected, at least for myself, it was still very thought provoking and caused me to sit and think. Not so much about the actual answer, but more on how to word it, what aspect of the question are you looking for an answer to, etc.<BR/><BR/>All in all, kudos to you on a test well-written.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30766504.post-59296971010551726852007-05-01T09:12:00.000-04:002007-05-01T09:12:00.000-04:00...yet two hours of writing and they've suddenly g...<I>...yet two hours of writing and they've suddenly got carpal tunnel.
