Teachers?

I guess I qualify, as a professor at Washington College. Ok, I'll admit I'm old-fashioned and still lecture, but I also do a LOT of one-on-one work with students, and most of our classes are pretty small.

My wife qualifies too - Liz is also an archaeologist - she now runs our public archaeology lab and previously was director of education for a non-profit (London Town Foundation, in Anne Arundel Co., MD). She also ran education programs in Baltimore.

Used our C-Dory over the summer to do surveys for underwater archaeology with several students on board, and it's the field work that is really fun. If this Eastern Shore get-together comes off in June (or whenever), we'd be happy to open up our lab for a visit and show off our underwater mapping gizmos.
 
John --

We have two archeologists in the family -- specialists in SW archeo -- so understand (a little bit) about what makes archeos unique. Would love to see your gizmos next June -- maybe your wife would even share a little 'formal' discussion of her underwater studies. My brother mostly digs "garbage pits."
This is a fascinating thread, for us -- so many educators in the C-Dory world. Have we heard from all?
 
Oh, and John, please don't interpret my comment about lecturing and teaching as meaning that lecturers aren't teaching -- they surely do, and I did my share of lectures. What I meant, and didn't say, clearly, is that many of my teachers taught a subject, and a very few taught BOTH a subject AND students.

Byrdman -- your teaching sounds fascinating, and we would love to spend time chatting with you about it when we're back together at the Gathering.
 
I'm reminded of Yellowstone John, he was in the Admin end of things....I wonder what they've been up to, hope all is well
 
Well, here's to all of you wonderful teachers who put up with great kids and some brats. :beer :cocktail :thup

I was one of those brats and still am. :mrgreen:
