Dear Hots Dropout and others,

On my first sabattical I enroled in a Hebrew lit class at Tel Hai College, 
figuring that i should deal with my ignorance.

To my horror, the instructor merely dictated what the literary devices and 
the meaning  were.

I did not last long!  I know that Hebrew lit is not always taught like that, 
but it sometimes is.
.  .  .

In my opinion, the HOTS had its merit in being a stick to force all teachers 
to teach literature, even if it meant upgrading themselves to the level 
required to teach literature.

But a teacher who liked to bring exciting creative material in, not always 
following her own year plan, was no longer able to because there just isn't 
time.

By the way , I'll consider teaching the HOTS if someone will put them into 
song or chant form, like Tom Lehrer did with the chemical elements.

Any takers?

Barry
