Another couple things that are worthwhile doing so all your hard work preparing the discs is not in vain-Write a letter/call the parents and explain that situation. If the student/parent sees no need for the disc, get it documented. If you have a communication system with the families on the Internet (My school has the mashov system) -write to the child and the parents before any scheduled test/quiz for which you are making a disc. I do this even with 12th grade students! Of course this should not be the job of the English teachers-(I once had a recording studio in my home for the tapes) -but at least we can get reimbursed a bit and burning discs is much easier than making tapes. I still have nightmares about all those tape cassettes piled up in my house. Barbara
