  1. I agree 100% with Roger. It falls on faculty to begin to ask questions that allow synthesis of their students thinking about the subject rather than details of the subject. Very encouraging.

  2. I definitely think that this kind of system should be adopted in class, not certain subjects but in all of them. I mean, is there really a point of memorizing the “if and then’s” for the Right Angel Congruence Thm?
