Two days before the Mars landing I heard (from the designer of theAnd you must be less than thrilled with the stunning results obtained by
spectrometer at ASU) that a DEFINITION of success was established by
NASA. The mission would be successful if three tasks are accomplished:
landing, descending the wehicule and taking one picture of the
surface.
Everything else would be a grave, they said.
I wish a similar definition of success was established for teachers.
Our
success is defined (implicitly ?) as an impossible task (thick book,
only
two semesters, no selection based on prerequisites, etc. etc.) No
wonder
we are never happy obout the results of our hard work.
