do any of you use a pass-fail grading system?
in what areas would such a system be appropriate?
and how is GPA figured out in this system?
And while on this subject(nodal semantic associated
network), is it necessary to include courses that
are audited on transcripts since they do not
Hi James,
I think your guess is correct. It was, I believe, Descartes who
first said that there are only 2 types of human behavior, voluntary and
involuntary. He also said that non-human animals were only capable
of involuntary behaviors, such as reflexes, whereas only humans
had also voluntary
SWT does offer the option for students to take a certain number of hours

You may not have read my post very closely. I don't believe and never claimed there

Hello all:
Are Broca's and Wernicke's aphasia associated with
difficulties in written expression? If so, how are these problems manifested in

There was a report that visual processing is related to stripes in the

I guess I'm not being as specific in my terminology as you might prefer
me to be; in which case, we may not even disagree. But your most recent
