I use the eighth edition site and there have been some times when it was
not working. I am aware of maybe 3-4 times since September_07. These
are only times that have created problems for my students sufficient
that they let me know, or times when I have been unable to access the
site personally.
I have used them from time to time - usually to illustrate a lecture
point. I also link to a few in my online courses. I also do this for
some NPR or CBC audio programs and PBS video segments - Scientific
American Frontiers, for example.

I thought the usual question was the difference between a lager and an ale. I
seem to recall that it has something to do with yeast action - one is top
fermenting and the other is bottom - can't remember which is which.

This is true but we don't have too many things to vote for - we don't

I think it will depend a bit on what your institution is supporting.
I've used WebCT for online courses and have learned (often the hard way)
how to make it work. It is an expensive platform that most small places

How busy is your committee? We have been talking about doing something
like this and are wondering how often the committee would need to meet?
How are members selected? Is it an all faculty group or are there

For the follow-up question I think the 2nd proposal is what happens. I think that the
key to discriminating between the procedures of punishment and negative reinforcement
is to focus on the order of events and the outcome. I believe that students often
recognize the aversive stimulus (punishe
What helps me with this terminology is to focus on the ending of the words. If the
word ends in 'ed' it is a stimulus. If the word ends in 'ment' it is an event or a
procedure. For example,
Punishment (the event) occurs when a punisher (aversive stimulus) is added and the
behavior decreases.
