Although I have noticed one student who is doing well and
has poor attendance, the overall attendance is quite good.
I suspect that a student capable of learning the material
from the notes is probably capable of learning the material
from the text, and such individuals are rare. Besides, the
notes do not indicate when I'll give a quiz or give an
assignment to be collected--these are not done on any
regular basis.

You have a very interesting idea here. I showed you posting to my
daughter [a Master degree candidate at U of O] she agreed but also said
doesn't promote "cutting" class?

Do you have a reply?
