Fearful Students Fearing Teachers

We expect our students to be proficient in all genres of writing. This year I stretched myself to see if I could write differently. I write 'academese' for scholarly journals. My writing in The Hindu was a journalism feature article.
This is a third level of casualness I am attempting, and perhaps the most difficult for me.
The Open Page (http://www.facebook.com/#!/TheOpenPage) is newspaper meant for parents, students and teachers publsihed in Ahmedabad, India. This article on corporal punishment is only about 500 words but keeping the research down and 'talking' more than 'writing' is breaking down barriers for me. Check my article out in the May issue (http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=332034043536295&set=a.308809069192126.72803.136382846434750&type=1&theater).

  10. Regardless of what your film propensity or your preferences for motion pictures might be, the online film rentals have everything covered. Moreover, they calm you from any problem and quarrel that the customary type of film rental regularly suggests.
