as a random piece of information, it was #2 that kept me clinging for dear life until things finally started to make sense just before the midterm in intro… I kept thinking that if you were that excited and willing to work that hard to teach this stuff, perhaps you weren’t lying when you said I would get it eventually- or that it was worth knowing.

By the way, readers, you can see other articles by Carmine Gallo (for example, Five Ways to Ruin Your Next Presentation), at his web site.

Will do, Carmine! Thanks for your kind words about this little mess, and for your generous offer. Next time I present some interpretive literary approach to my introductory students, it will be for them like the unveiling of iPhone 3G!

Well, you get an A for creativity! Thank you for applying the techniques in my column to the teaching of the Hebrew bible. It’s something that I didn’t think about, but I’m honored that you found the content useful. And if you like my 700 word article, you’ll love the new book, The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs. Please send address and I’ll make sure you get a complimentary copy to share with your students.
