I think that the way the classroom was situated, in a roundtable discussion was awesome. We were able to see on another it it brought the communication level to a different extent.I am appalled on how the department is responding in a matter oh how you teach the class. As we discussed this issue, it was obvious the way the students were reacting.I personally believe that you choose what you want to learn. This course does not put pressure on you, as the student. What I do not that alot of students do not know is the power they hold on this university. It is the power to not only challenge you peers but the instructors as well. For heavens sake, my GPA does not clarify who I am as a student!! So teachers grade on grammar,others on participation. I think teachers and those in superior authorities need to stop and actually get to know the students and their capabilities. Your technique of teaching is by the far most fair way of grading since I have been in college. I enjoy your class not only because it is interesting. However, I feel I step into an environment, where I am not seen as a student who needs to improve on my grammar skills. I am seen as an individual, a woman, who is striving to learn, and to excel, regardless of my minor flaws. Kristina Ramirez
