Totally agree. I've had students challenge me with one of two comments. Comment 1 - You did not cover this in lecture. Comment 2 - Why are you talking about this after we have the test. Answer 1 - You are responsible for everything in the chapter, whether I lecture on it or not. Answer 2 - (I want to say that I don't need to defend my teaching practices, but...) I am expanding on the material or I am giving you new material or because you need to know it.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep
But I have papers in a heap
And piles to grade before I sleep
Or walk those woods, so dark and deep. (especially fitting since I just got home from Yosemite.)

 is there a rule somewhere that states that a prof
must cover all the parts of a chapter before giving
a test on that chapter?
My philosophy is that once a chapter is assigned
students are responsible for knowing it,even though
I would not be able to cover it all in class.

Send me something.
