(Did You) Study for Final Exams?

December 12, 2008

Why didn’t you?!  Of course that sounds a little cynical from my end, but the fact remains that few students will study for Final Exams and fewer will visit my web sites for help. Makes a teacher wonder why THEY (the teacher) puts so much time and effort into their lessons and in creating fair and valid tests. I could be surfing the net, playing my guitars, teaching my parrot new tricks, binding up wounds from parrot bites received during training, or any number of other activities. Final Exams are a fact of life. They happen at the end of a semester or year in most American High Schools. They happen in jobs when you are expected to be able to perform on your own after receiving some expensive training. They happen when your kid is leaving home after 18+ years and you wonder if you taught them well.Preparing BEFORE the test is smart, responsible, and necessary – that is, if one hopes to achieve a measure of success. Don’t cripple yourself on purpose.Get to it! If you need some help or even pointers, see me before or after school or come to see me during SRT on Monday or Tuesday.


Welcome to Professor Janowacky’s Dangerous Site

November 10, 2007

Greetings and felicitations!
Welcome to this site. I hope you use it and find it dangerous.

NO…You’re not going to find anything here about how to blow stuff up! If you hang around here a little while, however, you might accidentally learn something or even learn how to apply something you have learned.

Now, THAT, my friends, is a thoroughly dangerous notion!

Herein you should find aid and assistantance for my Biology classes at Delphi Community High School, plus some other stuff that may educate and entertain. So, take a peek at the links, read my witty words of wacky wisdom, and poke about the place. Feel free to contact me through the blog comments. You can also reach me at my school e-mail address. Let me know if you find something interesting that I should put up here for others to see.
