Teaching day

BGillespie's Blog: "Thinking back upon the teach day we had... This was the most enjoyable class so far! It was great to see what people came up with and some of them were quite creative. This exercise is a perfect example of how the class should be operating. The act of peer-to-peer teaching works very well. If anything more beneficial than the student to teacher relationship sometimes.

Specifically the EZ-Waste concept and how to mask fake emails struck me the most. The ordinary citizen does not take the time to think about how and where all electronic equipment is disposed of. Our first concern is to pass the problem to someone else or simply just throw away what does not work anymore. But where does all that go and what is the decomposition cycle like? I certainly learned a lot from Yanina's talk. Catherine's twitter presentation was very informative and will hopefully play a key role tonight as we try to have a live twitter feed throughout the VP debate. Lastly I am still astonished as to how easily fraudulent emails can be sent over the server. I think twice when I check my email now."
