I would be the first to admit that classrooms do not have to be masculine in their feel, so to speak. All I'm saying is that the configuration of the lab/classroom and the technology itself--its squareness and rigidity, its weight and footprint, so to speak is pretty solid, strong, immobile...Not like talking with a person in the flesh, face to face. Many teachers find this conversation satisfying and it is not just on an intellectual level. Bill responds
