Teacher Commentary: On pacing

Chris: In the computer class, they’ll come in and they’re all working at their own pace. Everybody is at a different stage. Once they get into the paper I have to let go of the idea that everybody’s going to have the same thing at the same time, so it makes workshop chaotic. For example, I end up doing workshop with half the class, while the other half of the class is drafting. Half the people are workshopping in pairs and I’m going around and speaking with everybody else, and they’re speaking with each other. So it’s a totally different learning environment.
