Plus – In Policy

          Many times students come to me asking to be added into a class

of mine that is already full. We place caps on these courses because

putting too many people into a class that should provide the students

with the opportunity to discuss the material reduces the value of the class

for everyone and requires more effort from the instructor. At a minimum I

have more papers and exams to grade, and more journals to read, etc.

Often students tell me that they need this course to graduate and can

only take it at the time that my class is offered.

          Since you are asking more of me, it seems only fair that I tell you

what I expect from a plus-in. I expect you to be in virtually every class.

Virtually always prepared, having read everything assigned, and brought

it to class to refer to. Expect me to call on you to verify that regularly. I

would make these same claims of all of the students who register for my

class but they do not have to get my permission to register. Plus-ins do

need my permission.

          So, this is the deal. You want me to plus you in. Ok, as long as there

are not already plus-ins. But be very well prepared. If that is okay with you,

then please sign up with me. Let’s understand each other. If you do not

live up to these requirements, you will fail this course.

And I am sure that will not help you graduate.

The Puzzler

Crossing the River: A group of people have to cross a river on a ferry. There are a Mother
and two daughters, a Dad and two sons, a Police Person and a Criminal in custody. The
following restrictions exist:
1) only two people can be on the ferry at a time,
2) only the Mother, the Dad or the Police Person can pilot the ferry, so one of them must be
on the ferry whenever it transfers anyone over or back across the river,
3) the Mother can not be left with either one or both of the Sons unless the Dad is present,
4) the Dad can not be left with either one or both of the Daughters unless the Mother is present,
5) the Criminal can not be left with anyone else unless the Police Person is present,
6) the ferry may be used as often as desired and individuals may cross and re-cross the river
many times.
What is a successful sequence of movements to get everyone across the river.
You may want to use the following internet site which will allow you to try various combinations
of moves, although not in English. The start area is in the lower right hand corner.
