Which was nice.

Nine Teaching Days to Christmas

This week is the penultimate week of teaching term at Maynooth and, as usual at this stage of the Semester, we’re getting busier and busier. The examinations for January have been sent off for printing and are (presumably) ready to go, and I’m up to date with all my coursework gradin so I am, miraculously, on schedule as far as teaching is concerned. I should finish covering the respective syllabuses by Tuesday 16th, with the remaining teaching sessions devoted to revision. I don’t have any lectures on Fridays this term, so my teaching ends, a day before the end of term, on Thursday 18th December. To celebrate the end of term I’ll be presenting the students in the last session of my Engineering Mathematics module the gift of a final Class Test. I’m not sure when I’ll get to correct it. Oh, and our Department Christmas Dinner is on Wednesday 17th.

I’ll soon have to decide when to pause the publication of new papers at the Open Journal of Astrophysics and prepared for next year’s Volume 9. A certain person is insisting that I take a complete break for at least a week, so I think we’ll probably stop on Christmas Eve and begin again in the New Year.

In the meantime, term goes on. I have three lectures to get ready for tomorrow. Incidentally, my mid-Semester feedback suggested that I start each lecture with an introduction to say what I’m going to be covering. Here are some examples of what I’ve been doing in response:
