Crunch Time

So, my brother in law is taking an independent-study course at college, and last week, he had to do 21 papers for the course. Of course, these papers were due every week throughout the duration of the course, but he let them all build up until the end, and then he had to crank them all out over a weekend.

The course is entitled "time management"

Ironic, huh.

Who teaches a "time management" course that way? Your students are presumably already struggling with the concept, but you give them 21 papers to do whenever they want? What do you expect?
