I know that some of you like when I do "behind the scenes" teacher stuff. So today I'm on the first day of a four day intensive class in teaching AP Calculus. I'm now in the orientation session at Penn State in Great Valley where we are being told that we must do 8 hours a day, no exceptions, because they "take their partnership with the College Board very seriously." They said there would be a representative of the College Board here on Thursday so that should know if we see any "strange faces." This leads me to wonder what kind of faces the people at College Board have.
We're on a nice little campus that might be mistaken for an office park, right off 202.
To say I'm not in the mood for this would be an understatement. This hasn't been a particularly restful vacation and the prospect of getting up at 6:30 to drive out to the western suburbs doesn't thrill me. On the other hand, I've not been able to get much of anything done around the house so maybe I'll be more successful if I'm assigned to do something. And maybe it'll be nice to use another part of my brain for a little while.
