Thanks to Frank Darr and Tom Gossman for their input. Tom, in response to
your concern there are two points each student must turn in his/her
original answer (copies are not acceptable). this forces each student to
write their answers using their own words. Second, if I have two or more
students collaborating (discussing?) my course am I not blessed. I mean
how many students form discussion groups about any subject?
 
Thanks for the ideas and suggestions. The use of email can only make a
great organization even greater by bringing us closer together. It's a
shame that only 60+ of our membership are signed on to ALSBTALK.
