So,anyhow...Remember back in grade school,when instructors would encourage class participation?
(no doubt,tongue in cheek),by repeating the old adage;"There are No stupid questions,just lazy students"?...Do you believe they(teachers),typically were being ingenuine,in the prodding of extemporaneous,and at best specious replies,from naive,unsuspecting students,simply for the express purpose of accumulating evening entertainment fodder,to be shared with family and friends?...Further,do you believe that they gossiped after hours with family and neighbors,spreading vicious lies about students falsley accused of clowning around during class? "Cause man,if so...We should feel like such saps,for so foolishly and naively trusting in and embracing our teacher/student mentorship relationship,toward furthering education.
